20 days left until the election (#4274)

      I knew these last few days before the election were going to be hard but with Ruth passing the time is becoming almost unbearable. I refuse to watch the shit show replacement circus offered by the greedy self serving republicans but it still hurts knowing there is nothing we can do for now to stop it. They have no conscience about what they are doing so there is no appealing to their better natures. I have been saying for decades that republicans really don't have better natures but through the years no one could see what I was seeing or at least not enough of us to stop them from power. Regardless though we are in the muck of it and until the election we won't really have any good news to keep us soothed.
     So I distract myself with other responsibilities in my life while keeping up on current events outside the republican back clapping parties. I have been watching the courts and their decisions on voting rights in individual states leading up to election day. We are mostly doing well against the vote suppressors but they have a few key victories for now. All told though this election is coming off in the voting department as I had hoped. Many are early voting and many are voting despite any and all obstruction. It is marvelous to watch our American society step up and defend our democracy by participating in it. This is how we will overcome the republicans and their choice to hijack this election.
     We vote in such a way as to make damn sure any contested court decision about who won the election that goes trump's way will be met with a revolutionary zeal that will bring about enough pressure as to nullify any court thievery. Those who would make our lives worthless as to our democracy will find that the bridge too far is not just a movie. But I doubt any chicanery will develop as we the democratic party have built such a large coalition as to leave little to no doubt as to who will win when we all vote as we should. 20 days left until trump receives his verdict and then it is left to find his sentence. He will stand in court for his actions and the depth of his complicity will not be negated.
