House Democrat Calls for ‘Shadow Government’ to Undermine Trump, with Adam Schiff as Fake AG
Breitbart ^ | 15 Nov 2024 | HANNAH KNUDSEN

Democrat Rep. Wiley Nickel (D-NC) is so bereaved by Vice President Kamala Harris’s loss and President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet picks that he is suggesting Democrats take action and form a “shadow government,” operating to oppose the Trump agenda that the majority if the country voted for.
Nickel put forth his idea in an op-ed in the Washington Post, asserting that it is time for America to “borrow from our British friends and appoint a shadow cabinet to fight back against the worst excesses of a second Trump administration.”
He laid out his vision on the House floor, asserting that “new times call for new solutions.”
“Last week stung. As Democrats, we simply failed to convince the American people we have better ideas to solve their problems, but we do. Now we need to dust ourselves off and get ready to fight,” he said. “We can’t let Donald Trump’s extreme MAGA agenda go unanswered or unopposed,” he continued, walking through his pitch to “borrow from our British friends and appoint a shadow cabinet to fight back against the worst abuses of a second Trump administration.”

that would be an insurrection or treason, so just arrest and jail them where the J6 are.

You’re absolutely right that we’ve had a shadow government behind biden/harris!
The presumptive head of the shadow government, obama, just left the country, presumably on “vacation”!

Are they going to get their Billionaire pals to pay for it?
And where does the police powers come from to enforce the judgements of their shadow government?
Stupid ideas that have chance of working in the real world.
I am sure it is fun to talk about though.

Maybe some of Elon’s Team of Geniuses can delve into Shiffty Shiff’s Shady Past. You just know he’s dirty...the challenge is to document and prove it.

Sorry Mr. Nickel, are you a pimp by the way? We’ve already got Obonzo’s Kenyan Shadow Government. We don’t need any more redundancy. We’ve got way too much of it already. Look at the number of courts we’ve got running this country which has chosen lawlessness from here on out. We don’t need any courts anymore.

I thought the Democrats already have done that every time they lose an election.
