Editor,
Our nation, the United States of America, is presently in political crisis. We have never had a person running for president who wanted to lead our nation with a political system other than a democracy. Donald Trump is the first person trying to accomplish this with an autocratic/dictatorial form of government.
Here is my “take” on all this. Put aside everything we are hearing, seeing and arguing about among all our media, our members of Congress, and all the various confusing news reports. Put all this aside and believe and trust in power of “We the People,” the voting public. Our democratic system of government is still alive and will determine the outcome in our next elections.
The majority of our people are wise enough and motivated enough to vote for maintaining our democratic form of government. Donald Trump and his “base of believers” will not prevail to the point of national leadership.
This is just my personal view. I believe it needs to be seriously thought about by each of us. It needs to be thought about, talked about, and acted upon in the upcoming election cycle. Merry Christmas.
