In 2016, Dems accepted Hilary Clinton’s defeat as a SAD REALITY.
In 2020, the MAGA GOP rejected the defeat of their candidate as a SICK DEEP STATE LIE.
Until we can re-establish the primacy of truth over power, American democracy will continue to erode and the possibilities for autocracy and large-scale violence will continue to multiply and escalate.
The republic cannot survive if it remains unmoored from FACTS.
