Editor,

Our nation is in great peril. We brought this peril upon ourselves when we elected Donald Trump to the presidency. We elected Trump, and now, we are living with the consequences. The peril resides with the millions who are still following narcissistic Trump. Trump has a serious voting power-block to be reckoned with.  

Let’s look at one important problem that is immigration. Fox News, especially, is ramping up attitudes of anger with the Biden administration on the immigration situation. This will take time, but President Biden’s empathy, good sense, and honest leadership will ultimately prevail and restore proper immigration standards and functioning.    

Our democratic system of government presently has a Republican party in shambles. Our nation's problem is non-partisan. We need two strong political parties. Right now, it’s important that the reasonably well functioning Democratic party continue leading our nation for the next few years while the Republican party is sensibly rebuilding.

We are a nation “Of the people, by the people, and for the people.”  Our votes determine our nation’s character and functioning direction. The mid-terms will be suddenly upon us. To handle the present peril, people must be speaking out. We must keep on speaking the truth regardless of party affiliation and urge people to vote. This is about building back our nation’s democratic form of government.  

Let’s cease the rancor and start a healing process.
