'Grind the country to a halt': Democrat urges national strike if Trump meddles in midterms

The Democratic senator Ruben Gallego has proposed that, should Donald Trump try to sabotage the midterm elections, Americans should respond with a general strike that would "grind the country to a halt".

If Amerikans had any backbone, a General Strike would have been called after the murders of Pretti & Good.  Given most J6Ps live paycheck to paycheck, I doubt most could afford not working much more than a week anyhow.  That's not gonna crash the stock market.  So  I hardly think it's the "Ultimate Response" either.  A UR would be something more like the French Model circa 1789.
