lyrics

Where were you in 2017, when we had the worst president in the history of the United States? Were you part of the resistance to make sure that Trump is a one-term president?

Trump’s first 100 days agenda includes repealing environmental regulations, Obamacare and the Dodd-Frank Act, giving the rich and big corporations a huge tax cut, and putting in place a Cabinet that doesn’t believe in the Voting Rights Act or public schools or Medicare or the Fair Housing Act.

Donald Trump presents a silver lining that may be the catalyst the Progressive movement needed. Americans are no longer waiting for a Messiah. They have finally taken one of President Obama’s most effective messages to heart. “You are who you have been waiting for.”

Greenpeace activists strung a “Resist” banner from a construction crane towering over the White House. The message was clear: Anyone who cares about climate change, clean water, or human rights needs to do something to show that to the current administration. The Resistance has the full force of Hollywood, the media and the entire Democratic Party behind it. There is also the resistance on the right. The conservatives who didn’t vote for Donald Trump and still voice concerns, but are willing to see what he does and judge him on his actions.

Being the resistance means you actually have something to fear. You could face real oppression and violence against yourself or loved ones. The resistance does not get to shout loudly on the street corner without fear of arrest.
