Not sternly worded letters. In the streets. In the courts. In Trump's face attacking his biggest inner demons.

Nobody can say if Pritzker can prevail. But if EVERYONE, and especially EVERY ELECTED DEMOCRAT, stands up this way, this is our best chance.

Pritzker should continue with this "Come get me. You know where to find me." line every day. This will be torture to Trump.

But for that resistance to work, Trump's other targets have to fight back strenuously. It looks like Comey is planning an "in your face" defense. Letitia James and others must be prepared to do the same. We need to stack up the malicious prosecution victories. This is an angle that the courts will naturally favor because no judge wants to feel like he or she is being manipulated like a pawn in a board game.

and Trump, for all his childish name calling, is terrified of Pritzker's wealth and family connections...there is absolutely nothing Trump can threaten Pritzker with (arrest/prison) that will make him bow-down to a psychotic old man...

but the real question is why Trump's dirty diaper is in a twist?..the answer: JB said mean things about him....and when Trump's fragile ego takes a hit, his visceral reaction is to shame his adversaries, demand retribution, and watch as his militia of vigilantes intimidate, harm, or kill his perceived enemies...pathetic!!

You go JB!!!!

I believe Gov. Pritzker has good sense and good priorities, however Chump has none.
And he won't listen to anyone else either.

He's down to earth, humble, a plain speaker - and a genuinely good person.

He's our better angel to balance Gavin Newsom's smart assed defiance! Love them both!

'box in' the Texas Guard. Deny them access to the state. Take it to the brink. See who blinks. Meanwhile sue Abbot for invading a sovereign state.
