Once you have made that leap of logic, the rest is easy!
The Minority
The extremely Asheville Citizen Times (not a typo) is trumpeting this piece on how to resist Trump’s administration. Did you know that less than 32% of eligible voters voted for Trump in last year’s election? Sure, a clean majority of those who voted chose to vote for him; but if we assume that everyone who didn’t vote also preferred not to have Trump over Biden/Harris, that gives us a strong supermajority of eligible voters who didn’t endorse Trump.

The overworked remnant of the Yosemite park service found time to hang a large U.S. flag upside-down off the top of El Capitan. Stephen Miller's response on X: "Are they signaling us that someone is trapped in the restroom?"
I am reminded of the response of many Republicans after Goldwater's landslide loss to LBJ in 1964: "25 million voters can't be wrong." (my remembering an election from 60 years ago indicates I am definitely in old geezer territory.)
The current Democrat slogan would then reference those who voted for Kamala Harris: "75 million voters can't be wrong." Which also means that the Democrat characterization of Trump voters would be "77 million voters MUST be wrong."
While the Asheville --where a cousin lives--article goes into moonbattery territory--claiming that the Trump administration will trample the Bill of Rights--I agree that the resolution introduced in Congress to enable Trump to serve a third term should not be passed.
Does the Ashville paper see Joy Reid's loss of her MSNBC platform as an indication of the predicted trampling of civil rights?
Surely the answer is "yes," if AP has the stones to sue the Trump Administration for kicking it off Air Force One, on civil rights grounds.
