Fellow Fediversians, historians, nerds, tech mavens, and people of good will, lend me your ears and your skillz!
In his recent State of the State Speech, Democratic Illinois Governor JB Pritzker pointed out the following: "It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic."
(Pritzker was referring to the Weimar Republic.)
Trump has now parked himself in the Oval Office for one month -- with 9 days off for golf.
In that time, he has enlisted Elon Musk's henchboys to infiltrate and dismantle critical goverment services.
He is in the process of alienating our friends and allies, and aligning himself with our foes.
The ask: Can someone with the needed capability create a countdown clock to set Trump's destruction of the US against Hitler's countdown to destruction of German democracy?
It is my belief that this can energize more people to resist the wanton trashing of 249 years of the US republic.
Anybody want to step up?
Can you kindly boost this post with the intent that those who see this idea and can act on it will do so?
Thank YOU!

When #NASA was getting ready to launch Saturn V rockets from its two pads at #KSC, it set aside an area for the #press, along with this countdown #clock to help the reporters know how much time remained before launch.
This iconic clock was removed after the Space Shuttle era and moved to the Visitors Complex and a new, LED screen was installed.

#NASA installed this old countdown clock during the Apollo program and it continued through the Shuttle.
Kennedy Space Center has now replaced it with a digital display that can provide more information, and moved the old clock to the Visitors Complex.
