47 days left until the election (#4247)

      The informal last day before the early voting kicks off is today. I didn't say normal because to my surprise North Carolina started early voting last week. But tomorrow it begins to tick off multiple states. Minnesota and South Dakota tomorrow and then Michigan, New Jersey, Vermont, Virginia, and Wyoming the very next day. After that there are many who follow just days between them. We are in it now and although the election day is still 47 days off we are getting our votes in place for counting. This election has been like an lifeboat for the many of us who know trump is trying to become king of America. Our democracy is on the ballot and so is our soul as a nation.
     The interest in voting this time is no less than intense. The many of us have but one thing left to do on this planet should we go soon and that is to vote for democracy and all that it stands for. We democrats are duty bound and determined as well to see the trumps voted out of our politics along with all the republican enablers that can be ousted. We won't get them all but we will get enough of them to shake the republican party to it's core. That core may well have rotted but it still does feel and the feeling it will have after November 3rd. will be downright gut punched. The deserve of it is well documented and due to them as a true reflection of any cost/benefit analysis.
     I have no sympathy for those who would take our democracy and treat it thus like a worn out rag ready to be thrown in the garbage. The caring emotions I usually feel for those who are wrongly accused or convicted are not available to those who willfully threaten the greatest form of free government known to our species. I will not tolerate a split second of forgiveness for them until they have found remorse and apology. Still though they will need a deterrence for their rehabilitation and that will be an applicable punishment. We as a nation cannot move forward without addressing the ill that is currently being exposed by those who have free will under our democracy to do so.
