Monday morning fantasy: That in 48 hrs, the myth of Donald Trump's political "genius" is shattered along w/his delusions of invulnerability & the freedom he enjoyed as a consequence of having neither checks nor balances on his power, & his ability to damage is seriously limited.
People will see that the American people are fundamentally good, outraged by the serial abuses of the pathological liar who is our president, and that the Trump era will be seen as an aberration not a sign of a trend. I realize it is a fantasy. I'm not counting on it.
But it is also not impossible. It just depends on you & everyone you know going out & voting, encouraging those who are considering whether to vote to vote & helping those who can't vote to vote. But just between us, it's not about "everyone voting regardless of who you are for."
It's about voting for Democrats. It's about recognizing that a.) Trump and the GOP must be checked and b.) that they have abused their power in ways that have weakened and endangered America profoundly. (And that given another lease on power they will do even worse.)
So, if you are going to vote to actually stop the madness in the White House & in Washington, now is the time to step up. And if you think things are just fine, well, stay home, watch TV, have a nap. And give us a chance to fix this mess and set America on the right track again.
