Okay, Kamalot was only an illusion, and it’s absolutely futile and pointless trying to find blame for the terrible setback. A multitude of reasons have crowded the media, everything from the failure of the Democrats to carefully weigh their deficiencies to an underestimation of the red wave that was overcome during the midterm election. Immigration, inflation, the price of eggs and gas, the devastating and still enduring impact of Covid-19, the war in the Middle East, lack of appeal to the working class in the Midwest are being cited as among some of the chinks in Harris’s armor. Of course, there was very little mention of two irreducible problems: racism and misogyny. But what about the Latino numbers and the African Americans who sided with Trump? Well, voting against one’s self-interest remains a potent element in our body politic.
No use crying over spilled milk, belittling our colleagues, and finger-pointing until our nails fall off. To be sure, something has to be done to head off a government on the precipice of fascism. What the few of us who remain on the ramparts must do is to recommit ourselves to the fight for democracy. Roll up your working class sleeves and put your political muscle to the wheel of justice and righteousness. Cancel that flight to Portugal — our plight is here!
Hey, you don’t have to tell us about how painful it was losing to a convicted felon and psychopathic liar, and hearing people talk about how Trump doesn’t represent the true America. One letter we read from a citizen pretty much put our dilemma in a nutshell: She wrote that the one good thing we can glean from this election and defeat is that we don’t have to worry about another Jan. 6, which, of course, is a depressing conclusion about our country.
Nope, we don’t have a Jan. 6; we got a Nov. 5, and it’s hard to imagine any date worse than this. Even so, a luta continua — the struggle continues, and at no point did we think it was ever over!
Convicted felon? What were the charges? Bookkeeping errors. Paying a porn star to keep quiet. Please….Harris is a dimwitted DEI hire. Fascism? Biden..Harris censorship Administration…just giddy about taxpayers Paying for Sex change ops? You Marxist Democrats want to be tyrants.
