One line of Strategy from the “Trump Resistance” that is stupid, dishonest, and will not be all that successful.

If you’re an internet troll, you can help, too—by using your formerly evil powers to influence Trump supporters. Maybe get a fake Twitter account, pretend you’re a booster for Trump, and sow seeds of discontent among his followers with stuff like, “Man, I really wanted change! Where are those jobs I was promised?”

The trolls aren’t going to be all that convincing, the aping of Trumpian talking points from a point of caricature until they find a breaking point to bring in some anti-Trump line won’t be terribly graceful.

This is good and all, but…

Educate yourself and support good reporting—but when you see clickbait, don’t click on it. Be skeptical about what you read in the news and demand verification—yes, even if it seems to make Trump look like shit. Especially then.

We’re failing a tad with the whole “Russian Pee Pee Party”.  Or for that matter the one about making up sock puppets to trump up trump than dump on trump, which lies in the same arena of “fake news”.

Now mull the line on… DON’T TURN AGAINST THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY …
(Sigh).  The two party system is always going to leave you flat-footed.
