Serious question, please boost for reach.

I’m a 50+ white male.

How many old white guys out there would be willing join a 501(c)(3) whose mission is to oppose old white guys in positions of power? How many people would be willing to provide financial support for the same?

Nothing like this currently exists in the U.S. and I think it could be a damn effective form of protest. Personally, I’m sick and tired of seeing old fucking white guys in power everywhere I turn. Am I an aberration?

Oh, and despite thinking of myself as a bit of wordsmith, I’m admittedly terrible at acronym generation. What’s a good name for an organization pursuing said mission?

When Trump offered that response to a question at a press conference last week, it was the latest example of his tortured syntax, mid-thought changes of subject, and apparent trouble formulating complete sentences, let alone a coherent paragraph, in unscripted speech. https://www.statnews.com/2017/05/23/donald-trump-speaking-style-interviews/

The Supreme Court and the Constitution were never going to save us from Donald #Trump

No one is coming to save US democracy, except for ourselves.

Voting for #JoeBiden, whether you like him or not, is the only way to save democracy in America. https://www.vox.com/scotus/24086594/donald-trump-supreme-court-trial-immunity-never-going-to-save-us

The only place you’ll get this configuration of dudes living together is prison.

So I guess that’s good news for Andrew.

MAYBE it's because outlets like the NYT keep ignoring Trump's gaffes, like Washington liberating the airport in Newark or drawing on a NWS hurricane map with a Sharpie or calling the CEO of Apple "Tim Apple," or numerous other things.

If as much attention they are giving to Biden's gaffes were given to Trump's, the "age issue" might be a problem for both men.
