Our turn to “flood the zone”

It is Saturday and there are nation wide protests scheduled, yet this will be a news item and nothing more. The Trump administration will tout this as radical left whatevers to try and lessen the news impact for their base.  Sure some will pay attention, but Monday is still going to come.

If you think this will help the Democrats win the mid terms then that might happen but if the market is coming back and people have gotten use to the inflation these tariffs have caused that will be a larger hill to climb in November than people realize right now.

And more importantly we cannot wait a year and a half to fix the damage both economically and alliance wise this disaster Trump created. We need change now. I know I acted a bit optimistic that the economy may settle down some by 2026 , yet that is a warning more than a prediction. Things could also could sour and south fast right now and then 2026 may be too late.

We need to take action now. And again the demonstrations today will make some news, but the only way to change course is to get the Republican Congress to change course.

And this means you need to write your Representative and or Senator now, daily, hourly, start at dawn and write once a hour until dusk. Call them, write them email them just flood their lives with how you feel, what you need and why this is a disaster. It is only until the Republican Congress feels the heat that is stronger than Trump’s bullying them with his base will we get change right now.

Tell them about the tariffs, cuts to programs we need, protect and improve Social Security, Medicare, cutting taxes for the middle and working class not the rich, better education. Tell them you matter. Tell them to call our allies that do not trust us anymore and assure them we are working on it. Flood them with your concerns.

The concern is it will get worse, it may not, but we cannot count on that. We need to take true action now. And that action is telling the Republican Congress how we feel daily. Make them feel the heat that you are about to feel in your daily lives.

You can go to the websites for the House and the Senate

Find Your Representative | house.gov

U.S. Senate: Contacting the Senate

 and search for your Representative and Senator and get their information. I already looked mine up. She has it set up to sign up for her email to contact her, so be it. She will get more emails from me than I from her.

FLOOD THEIR ZONE
