WE The People
Are you watching? Are
you listening? Trump and the
Republicans are
attempting to throw
out the results of a free
and fair election.
Republicans in
leadership roles, who could make
this all stop, won’t step
up to help secure
our Democracy. You all
do understand this,
don’t you? “To ignore
evil is to become an
accomplice to it.”
The longer folks like
Rob Portman stand by and let
this happen, the more
precarious our
Democracy becomes. We
are one election
away from its loss.
The Republican Party
is now — according
to Steve Schmidt — our first
autocratic party. It
is important that
we all understand
the implications of this.
The eroding of
our Constitution
and the attempts to get our
fellow citizens
to distrust the rule
of law, the government and
facts don’t go out the
door when Trump leaves the
White House. This is just the start.
We must stay alert.
Our Democracy
only functions, when WE the
People do the work!
