(#5541) The blue wave is coming...

      Nothing the republican party is trying to accomplish will come to fruition. They want to destabilize our democracy through trump and his acolytes. The idea is to keep power in republican hands for many decades to come. The problem for republicans is that the voters are not being considered in their calculus. The republican party is a minority party in the fact of it having fewer members than required for a majority. The reason they are not a dominating force is because they offer little to nothing to the American people to attract their votes. The republicans want power but not for getting things done for the American people.
     Instead republicans want power in order to change the dynamics of our democracy and its rule by the people to one where a figurehead like trump would have authority over all of us at his whim. Not through consensus, with checks and balances, but through ego and self indulgence. There are too many in our nation who are not comfortable with everyone having a say in our government and that is the problem democracy faces from the maga crowd and trump enthusiasts. They don't admit to being racist but their actions speak louder than their silence or words of denial. This coming election will be all about whether we keep our democracy or not.
     What I do know though is that the firebrand of ignorance surrounding the trump and maga movement is dwindling. There are no large protests or rallies for the disgraced one term appointed ex president. Our current president, democrat Joe Biden, is pretty much on a roll coming into this election. The democratic party is gaining steam at the right moment and is building towards an epic showdown with the chaotic confounded republican party. With each party going in opposite directions the likelihood of a democratic wave election is growing more probable with each passing day. There is nothing for republicans to build on going forward which is the opposite of what democrats have already done and are still accomplishing.
