Oppose everything they propose, including apple pie and motherhood. Tell them we won’t even talk to them until they call our party by the right name. Respect please. I want the party to be angry as hell. I don’t know what others want. None of our ideas will be implemented if we can’t get some respect from the public. We need to correct when they say things like, “the president takes an oath to protect the American people“. The oath is to protect the constitution. Correct them every damn time.
