We are living in real time the ambush by trump and his lackeys of our patriots who do the great job of preserving and growing democracy. There is no doubt as to how trump and his cult are targeting the truth tellers within our political mechanisms. By either being called out as no trumpers or being fired the disgust that is trump is not trying to hide his mental infections. The scourge of one's soul that it takes to dump on honorable people is not within the normalcy of moral or ethical behavior. What we have is the rot of selfishness, cruelty, and greed on a massive scale within the republican party.
The ones who are directly feeling the wrath of the wannabe dictator trump are in the most vulnerable of positions. They hold jobs within our government that have functioned to maintain our democratic processes. So when they see the dissembling of our democracy they are quick to sound the alarm in some form. Yet it is the sounding of the alarm that they are being punished for not the actual dissembling of our democracy. This is the trump way and what he intends to do during his last vestige of power before the election. He is trying to unearth those who are doing their jobs in order to silence the advances trump is making on becoming that wannabe dictator.
As Nathan Hale said during the Revolutionary War, "I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country." Never in his mind did he think this statement of his would be in regards to his commander in chief being a traitor to democracy. That he would be in peril, as a patriot in the front lines defending democracy, because his leader was highwayman in a not so subtle disguise. But as Nathan showed us back when our democracy was just a hope and a dream, nothing is more important, not even his own young life. Today we are not facing death squads over our political views. Yet if we don't stop the infection that is trump we will shortly be. It is my expectation that the end of trump's reign will be over on November 3rd and all those who stood up and were accountable to democracy will have chosen the correct path for our democracy to survive.
