Jim, another great article and summary! I don't think it's beyond the pale to compare tRump's derangement to Hitler's at this point. As I post this comment we're only 2.5 hours from tRump's 8:00 pm EDT deadline.
May we all wake up tomorrow to find that he had second thoughts. My heart goes out to the brave Iranian citizens gathering around the power plants. I hope that deters the bomb droppers and missile launchers.
Probably the most directly impactful act of resistance/defiance is the mass withholding of federal tax payments, not mentioned in your list of tactics. If that takes hold there will not only be serious disruptive impact on the regime, there will also be safety in numbers for the participants. I am refusing personally and will have a column coming out this week on its value as a weapon.
The whole word is voicing outrage and the whole world SHOULD voice outrage. The result is however, Trump's narcissistic wound is so large now this is existential for him. When you are a narcissist and the whole world is turning against you the only option left is to destroy the world. It does not matter that you will be destroyed too. Trump needs to be physically restrained.
Amazing how apt Nietzsche, Thucydides, and Monty Python (Holy Grail, Meaning of Life, Life of Brian, etc) continue to be.

God help our military if they obey these orders from a draft dodging madman.

Please do! I want to do just this but am afraid and don’t know how to do it properly. I will share widely
