In all my 88 years, never did I think I’d see fellow Americans acting like the election deniers do. If they win, everything is righteous. If they lose, well you’ve all heard the howls and protests. Like a bunch of children. If you won’t play my way, I’ll take my toys and go home. They even turn on their own Republican voting officials, most of whom are just trying to do the right thing.
If the Republicans continue to act like Trumpies they will continue to lose elections as Trump’s influence continues to wane. Either a new political party will emerge to challenge Democrats or Republicans will have to go back to the party they were before the Trump disaster.
Like it or not it’s a changing country folks and those that don’t like the change will continue to shrink in numbers and influence and if you can’t see it you’ve had your head in the sand the last decade or more. The recent election pretty much tells that story. If we weren’t suffering through a nasty bout of inflation the GOP might have been crushed.
What we have to worry about now is that if Trump is losing favor, we need to prevent him from burning down the house and taking as much of this country with him as he tried to do Jan. 6, 2021. It’s the way the man lives and has always lived. We need to end this nightmare and get back to a more normal America. A nation that the world used to look up to.
