4T is Speeding Along Now
#23
Trump is so unpopular that he must cheat to win. Nothing says that he won't. He has done so much wrong that if defeated he will need to find another country.

Think of Ferdinand Marcos. Yes, it is that bad. Count on intimidation (Trump or prison, vote Trump if you want to keep your job -- your employer will know), dirty tricks, an onslaught of propaganda (Trump or treason)...

Crisis Eras are times of fear unless the leadership (yes, I know what FDR said -- All we need to fear... is Fear itself!) is capable of imparting courage upon people who have much to dread.

Here is my snippet of an inaugural speech for the incoming Democratic President:

We are a strong People. We have met difficulty with courage and achievement in the past, and we may need to do so again. We may face hardships, yet if we treat those with dedication and integrity we shall prevail. A nation that can settle the frontier, abolish slavery, get children out of the workplace and into school, recognize the rights of women and minorities, defeat Hitler and Tojo at the same time, turn a Depression into prosperity, contain Communism, and land men on the Moon can achieve anything. We have no excuse for failure.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist  but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
