We now know our worst political nightmare is real and what we will be up against for at least the next four years. I say at least because trump didn't hide his desire to be president for the rest of his life. Even letting it out that his supporters wouldn't need to vote again. If that doesn't foretell him wanting his own dictatorship of America like those he admires like Russia's putin, I don't know what is. He is now assembling a ridiculous cabinet for departments in our government that also foretell those agencies being at risk of elimination. Our society has been based upon the will of the people but now it will be on the will of trump.
How, those of us who fought so hard to keep trump from getting back into the presidency, we react and defend our democracy will be determinative for the future of democracy. How we, who are not tyrannical supporters, are able to thwart the worst of what trump will try to do to give America the stain of fascism over patriotism to democracy is our task. I do not know how this will work out in real time but I do know that every act we do must be calculated with the ideal that our democracy is greater than any alternative. I know sacrifices will have to be made and I am willing to sacrifice for the sake of our heritage. Those who do not know yet what they have allowed to happen will soon find out and hopefully they too will realize that their mistake must be corrected.
We Americans have given the reins of power to an absolute bully with sociopathic tendencies. We are in for a hard fight that would have been so much easier had we voted for Harris instead. But now we must do much more to preserve the ideals of democracy. There is no game plan per se at the moment but most of us already know that nothing trump does can be given to him with ease. We must make him work hard for his plan of pain and suffering for the working middle poor class. In two years we will be at the midterms and by then the mood around his duped followers will have changed. They will by then have realized that the claims we democrats made about trump undercutting our democracy are true. Then we will be able to start a political overwhelming of his desires to circumvent our 2028 presidential elections.
This blog will be an advocate for compassion, curiosity and human survival. When these elements of human nature are being denied, wholly, severally or individually, less than positive human traits are the outcome. It is my wish and hope that my reasonings on a variety of subjects will provide the readers of this blog with personal and public insights. My only motive is to provide a forum for advancing enlightenment. Carl Clark.
