Liberals are finding themselves in a tizzy as Trump’s recent executive adventures have sent shockwaves through their carefully constructed narrative. After spending years erecting walls of propaganda, it seems they’ve underestimated the sheer audacity of a president who just can’t be tamed. Now, they’re grappling with the ways to combat what they deem an “onslaught,” but instead of finding solid ground, they seem to be flailing like a fish out of water.
Some factions have decided the best route to rebellion is to set up training camps. Apparently, they believe that manning the barricades of their emotional turmoil requires a bit more finesse than basic survival skills. Meanwhile, others are clinging to the idea that the judicial branch might swoop in like a caped crusader to save them from Trump’s relentless executive orders. It sounds like a desperate call to arms for the lawyers, who must be thrilled at the sudden uptick in billable hours as liberals flock to the courts.
Crying and coping: Left struggles with Trump’s aggressiveness

The fundraising emails are, unsurprisingly, flowing like wine at a wedding, with organizations sprung from the fertile ground of Bernie Sanders’ campaign practically begging for donations to thwart any semblance of normalcy from the Trump administration. It appears that many on the left genuinely believe money can buy political salvation, as they clutch their wallets and hope for a miracle. Groups advocating for abortion rights are also getting in on the action, insisting they need funds for both security and litigation, a true sign of the times.
The Trump presidency has clearly rattled the nerves of many, and prominent liberal figures are now adopting a strategy that sounds more like a group therapy session than a strategic response. They’re advocating for various support systems, including “independent media” and a healthy quote-unquote dialogue about Republicans at family get-togethers. It seems they have embraced a bit of hope—through gritted teeth—as they prepare for what they’ve dubbed a “long fight.” Hope is nice, but perhaps it would serve them better to focus on policies that resonate with the average American instead of wallowing in resentment.
As Trump continues to shake up immigration policy, liberal activists are preening themselves for a fight, conducting seminars on how to resist the enforcement of laws they prefer to ignore. Initiatives like field strategy seminars reveal a sense of urgency that borders on hysteria, as they prepare to confront the unyielding tide of legal policy reform. While they’re gearing up for battle, psychologists have also jumped into the fray, offering coping mechanisms like engaging in acts of kindness and, ironically, smothering one’s face in tissues for a good cry. What’s truly fascinating is their insistence that the real job of resisting Trump’s agenda is done best while maintaining emotional wellness—perhaps something they should have done before taking a hard swing at the ballot box.
With Democrats wringing their hands at the thought of Trump’s power, it’s clear that many are less concerned with the actual policies he implements and more worried about their fragile emotional state. Whether it’s a hotline for reporting immigration arrests or welcoming psychologists into the chambers of Congress to discuss coping mechanisms, the reaction to Trump’s presidency looks a lot less like governance and a lot more like a collective freakout. Whether this “long fight” will result in any real progress for their causes remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: the left’s reaction to Trump continues to be an entertaining spectacle for those watching from the right.
