It seems to me there are three ways for you. If conservatives win even more power than they already have, would you pin your hopes on:
A). Physical force, as in having guns and/or going back to the "Weather Underground" approach,
B). Having a robust, well-enforced "rule of law" that could block their worst desires,
C). Counting on Divine intervention (for the religious among us).

What is the best answer for you?

Its too late now, Democrats had two choices in the primaries (Bernie & Hillary) for some reason they chose Hillary, and that basically decided the general election right there.

Now they have to put up with their failure.

Lol. With Trump and his fellow republicans in control of the presidency and the congress, they better make things better for regular Americans. If they don't it will be harder to blame Obama and the liberals as time goes on.

The Right will simply overreach.

They already think they have a "mandate" despite losing the popular vote. Yes, Trump won the election fair and square, but it'd be a mistake for the right to assume that the whole country suddenly agrees with them. Quite a few "liberals" didn't even vote; they wanted Bernie Sanders.

Answer A)

This is what progressives are known for throughout history. Be ready as they will kill those who do not worship at the feet of their ideology.

Not to mention Trump wants to cut taxes on the rich. That's going to go well.

Conservatives, you don't count on this one. Hoping some liberals will answer (seriously)...
