Support democracy or Trump, but you can’t do both

Okay, at this point in the political game, it is fair to assume if you’re still a Trump supporter, you are antithetical to the notion of democracy. Let me tell you why I say that. I don’t say that lightly. There was a time in my political analysis, when I would say those who support Trump are a mixed bag, you have individuals that are adversarial to certain powers that be they are tired of the gridlock in DC, they wanted something new, they wanted something to be a game changer. And so they experimented with Trump. I don’t say that anymore. At this point, at this stage of the political career of Donald Trump, you have to conclude the man is adverse to democracy, his team, the people who will implement his policies, if you give him power, again, they are openly saying that they are trying to get rid of democracy. They’re at major convention saying that they are adverse to democracy. They don’t care about policies. They’re not concerned about rule of law due process. Remember, January 6, was about overthrowing not simply the government, not simply the capital, but the Constitution. They were there to stop a constitutionally mandated process. Here’s the point. I don’t believe you have different factions who are trying to get to the same goal. I believe you have very different factions, trying to get to very different goals. There was a time in this nation where good faith disagreement was okay. Because ultimately, we desired the same outcome. We prefer people to have access to high quality education. We prefer children to not be concluded, summarize, based on their zip code. Opportunities are good, anti racism, good. These are things we typically would agree with. Now, there’s debate. You see Donald Trump, he’s not trying to make America great again. He’s trying to make America Well, what it was founded upon the principle, not a freedom, but the principle that you can own another human being the principle that women had restricted rights and or no rights at all. You see, the nation was founded on principles that are not aligned to what we understand as an enlightened culture. However, those who support Trump support some of those principles, they say it out loud, their elected officials who have literally set on record from the Republican Party, they no longer want everyone to participate in democracy. Some candidates for higher office have said that women should not be allowed to vote, that individuals who aren’t smart should not be allowed to vote. And then the agenda, the actual agenda of Donald Trump to up end policies that have protected disenfranchised citizens all across this nation. You see, this is part of their strategy. This is part of their plan. And once again, I submit to you if you support Trump at this stage of the game, I must conclude that you are okay with the dissolving of our current democracy.
