(#5937) The American manifest destiny of full democracy will return

      It was all doom and gloom in my mind on the night of November 5th 2024. I had already survived the catastrophe of trump in his first appointed presidency. To have that thrust on me again was a despair that I rarely feel. Yet within that utter despair I found a way to move forward even though I was thoroughly gutted. I was numbed to the point of spending time just staring out into space wondering how in the name of all that is proper and good with our nation we would let a craven creature like trump back into an honored position of trust when his whole being is nothing short of dishonorable.
     In the several months since that election night I have begun to see a path forward that gives me some of my fortitude back. I see the intent of our citizenry to push back on him and his cronies. I also see the world at large in a majority way push back against him as well. It is as if the election of him has solidified the resolve in many who otherwise had taken democracy for granted. Their awakening is more than symbolic it is an absolutely necessary. I can even now see the effect through adjudications that have defied the wrecking ball trump is laying to our constitution.
     America, previous to trump, had always stood on the front lines of democracy protecting its very existence. Not now! With trump in charge he is enamored with tyranny and what it can do for him. Instead the world has taken up where we Americans under trump are currently failing. I am proud of the fact that my American ancestors instilled into the history of the world the remarkable advent of an improving evolving democracy. The world is like the beacon of freedom that has replaced the now muted silence of American advocacy. Yet with each passing day America is growing her spine back and in some short order will again rise to the top of her courage. The American manifest destiny has always been up until now about spreading democracy and that time will soon come again!
