They could organize protests, they could help workers unionize, they could put their necks out and disrupt things, they could do anything besides stand by and say "oh no, this is so bad." They have a gigantic megaphone and the ears of almost half the country, their power isn't limited to the votes they have or don't have. I want them to be making plans that are bold, plans where they feel a need to account for "how do we make sure this doesn't turn into an outright riot though," the things you'd do if you actually believed the rhetoric about Trump being a threat to democracy.
