1. One of the positive aspects of Trump/Bannon extremism in the first 2 weeks is that it's harder to deny the trouble we're in & can act— Cheri Jacobus (@CheriJacobus) February 4, 2017
2. The days of pretending that this isn't serious are over. It is worse than what was warned about during the campaign. The press must unite— Cheri Jacobus (@CheriJacobus) February 4, 2017
3. When Trump tries to shut down one media outlet, the rest must resist. When Trump tries to bully a judge, the rest must be louder.— Cheri Jacobus (@CheriJacobus) February 4, 2017
4. When Trump/Bannon overreaches, all must call them out. When they lie, all must expose them. When they are treasonous, say so. Loudly.— Cheri Jacobus (@CheriJacobus) February 4, 2017
5. When a Trump family member is in a meeting they should not be in, question it immediately.— Cheri Jacobus (@CheriJacobus) February 4, 2017
6. Interviews with Trump and his people should be pre-taped and fact-checked at the time they are aired.— Cheri Jacobus (@CheriJacobus) February 4, 2017
7. Ignore & block Trump twitter trolls. Don't engage.They give media & lawmakers false impression of Trump support by viewers & constituents— Cheri Jacobus (@CheriJacobus) February 4, 2017
8. emails & tweets media and Cong get showing massive support for Trump are FAKE. Do not make programming or policy decisions based on these— Cheri Jacobus (@CheriJacobus) February 4, 2017
Well that is all good advice.9. Media should boycott the White House Correspondents Dinner unless Trump agrees to free & open press. This should not be negotiable— Cheri Jacobus (@CheriJacobus) February 4, 2017
And not surprising that it is coming from a Republican either.
From what I hear there are a whole lot more of these Republicans who are simply over Donald Trump and trying to either find some way to make distance between them, dig a moat around their party so that his shit does not splatter on them, or actively thinking about ways to remove him from office before he leaves a smoking black hole where the country used to be.
I used to dismiss any idea of Trump being impeached as an impossibility.
I am no longer doing that.
