This won’t happen, not ever, but I feel the compelling need to get something off my chest.
One man can stop the intimidation, bullying and threats against local election workers, if only he possessed a shred of decency.
Donald John Trump is wholly responsible for fomenting the anger that continues to fester against those who do their jobs the best they can, only to be undermined by the former POTUS who continues to insist that the 2020 election was “stolen” from him via “widespread voter fraud.”
It wasn’t. President Biden won fairly, legally and ethically.
Yet the former POTUS continues to inflame passions with The Big Lie. He is posing a dire threat to those who acknowledge publicly that the cultists who follow the former POTUS are threatening them. Worse, they are threatening election officials’ families, including their children.
One such official from Pennsylvania told a congressional hearing today about the continual threats he gets from supporters of the man who lost the 2020 election. Supporters of the ex-POTUS have called this fellow a “traitor” because he refused to reverse the results of the election. Traitor! Think about that for a moment … maybe two.
This is the new normal? Is this where we have sunk? Is this the kind of nation we have become, that individuals who do their jobs in accordance with the law cannot go through the day without facing verbal and actual threats by those who disagree with the outcome of a free and fair election?
One guy holds the key to bringing all of this to an end. He could call a press conference and demand without equivocation that his supporters must stop … as in right now.
He won’t do that. Because he lacks the moral character to do the right thing.
You continue to reinforce a simple fact. Democrats don’t have anything positive they can say about how this administration is running our country, so they simply talk about Trump.
Even Biden spends his time, when he does speak, talking about Trump.
Why won’t Democrats actually discuss the issues that people are concerned about??? The answer: they’d have to admit they got it wrong!
