Don't be silenced Eric. Don't allow grovellers to the bombastic, inhumane Trump to triumph. Now more than ever good men and good women need to stand upto Power and refuse to let Evil triumph. We might be over your way in late September. So we'll come and support you, call on the sycophantic mayor to find some courage in his head and heart to defend Truth and social justice. Best.
