Stop collaborating with Trump, Musk and the Republicans Take no action on the budget or the debt ceiling until the lawbreaking stops. Period. End of story. No wilding gangs marauding through the federal government. End the criminal conduct. Period. That’s it. No nuance. If you’re concerned about the constitutional crisis, use every opportunity to issue a flat “no” on any cooperative endeavor until the criminal conduct stops This pis the only acceptable position. It is the right thing to do, the constitutional thing to do and it is the only path that holds the possibility of meaningfully changing the situation in the short to medium term. It also demonstrates and shows an understanding of how to use power. And that is something the opposition desperately needs. Make them come to you.
