I want to like Ford's tough talk on electricity, but I do feel that we need to be careful. Trump is an autocrat, very unpredictable, and has virtually none of the traditional reservations or democratic guardrails in place anymore. He makes decisions on a whim via executive order.
Not saying to roll over, but I think that extreme measures like cutting off electricity should be approached with extreme caution. I think that would be very provocative (more so than other forms of retaliation) and could justify an irrational response from an autocrat like Trump.
