Liberals have been struggling to deal with the unprecedented shock and awe of President Trump in the last two weeks, which has hit the battlements that they built over the past four-years.

Some have held training camps and vowed to resist. Others have turned to the court system and hope that judges will grant them reprieves.

Some people have tried to improve their mental health because they are depressed at the prospect of four more years with Mr. Trump as president.

Opportunists screaming like televangelists claim that the only way to achieve political salvation is by giving, giving, and more giving in hard, cold cash.

1776 Coalition Sponsored From the State House to the White House Senate Conservatives Fund is fighting to confirm Trump’s cabinet nominees, but Chuck Schumer and the Left are attacking hard. Stand with Senators Cruz, Lee, Hawley, and others as they battle for America’s future!

Our Revolution, a spin-off of Sanders’ presidential campaign in 2016, said “We Need Your Help” in an email asking supporters to donate money to stop the confirmation of Trump’s Cabinet nominees.

Abortion right groups claimed they needed more money to pay for increased security in clinics, and to hire more attorneys to represent them in the lawsuits that they planned to file.

We need your help. Now. Today. The Feminist Majority Foundation said, “This hour”, adding that contributions were tax-deductible.

The fight with Donald Trump began within hours of the November elections, but it was more than liberals expected in his first few weeks as president.

Marc Elias is a former Hillary Clinton and Joseph R. Biden campaign lawyer. He told his followers he was inundated by questions from Trump opponents about what to do.

His ideas included his support for “independent media”, not holding Democrats to higher standards and speaking out at every opportunity against Republicans, such as on social media, in book club meetings, and at dinner tables with family.

Mr. Elias told them that they should also hold on to hope.

He said: “We’re in for a tough fight. We must commit and build an opposition that will last the test of times.” “We have to understand that it won’t be over with one election, or even the defeat of one candidate. It will take some time to win this fight, which is the battle of our generation.

Every Trump move brings out the same chorus of protest.

Immigration advocacy groups are the most active in resisting Mr. Trump’s immigration policies. They host “field protection strategies” for activists, and know-your rights sessions for immigrants afraid of deportation.

Some groups have established a hotline in Los Angeles to report arrests for immigration. Lawyers and activists are investigating and determining if anything can be done.

RootsAction is one of the groups that was among the first to call for Trump’s impeachment in his first term. This year, they are taking a more hands-on approach. Its RootsCamp will train liberal warriors “to fight to resist Trump’s agenda.”

Roots stated, “We cannot just watch and wait.”

Psychologists have filled the Internet with strategies to cope, including building “emotional Intelligence.”

Time magazine published “science-backed” strategies to cope with anxiety just before the inauguration.

These included exercising, doing acts of kindness, smiling at strangers, and crying, especially with a close friend.

Time reported that “It may seem counterintuitive but it is healthy to cry on Inauguration day, with the caveat that you shouldn’t do this alone.”

Time suggested using the inauguration of Mr. Trump as a turning point, and deciding if you want to “merely endure” the next four-years or “treat them as an opportunity.”

Jeremy Shapiro is an adjunct assistant professor at Case Western Reserve University. He said that “political stress” was not a big issue before the 2016 presidential election.

In an article for The Conversation, written just after the inauguration of President Obama, he stated that it is a bipartisan topic lacking good research.

He said that for now, he advises his politically distressed clients, to gain some perspective, and to accept the wisdom of The Serenity Prayer. This prayer urges people to find the strength and ability to change what they can, and to acknowledge what they cannot.

He told them to limit their consumption of political news.

He wrote: “The policies Trump proposes will not seriously and concretely damage the lives of the vast majority of people, but many are suffering from painful levels of distress based on what they hear and read in the media.”

It will be difficult for Capitol Hill members to avoid Mr. Trump.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (Democrat from Maryland) invited psychologists to give a talk to legislators about coping authoritarian behaviour.
