Day 271
Todays word:SEQUACIOUSNESS (17th century) The blinkered and unreasoning and slavish following of another, no matter where it leads!
What can you say? It was always going to end in tragedy and farce. Trump supporters prove themselves to be everything we thought they were. Trump, if any proof was really needed, proves himself to be the worst of Presidents. This is not just America today, divided, rioting over the result of the election, this is the prevailing mood of the world. With Trump we should not be surprised, his relationship with his so called supporters has always been tribal. His entire Presidency has been one of confrontation and divisive rhetoric. We can only hope that once Biden is sworn in that some order can be restored. It is going to be difficult to build trust and faith in the democratic system, after the damage Trump has caused with his continued failure to accept the result. We shan’t discuss the obvious irony of his stance and the thousands of contradictions that riddle all of his arguments. There is no doubt that both he and his closest allies, stirred up and incited his supporters and that this attack on the Senate was almost inevitable. Trump must be removed, even though he has a only two weeks left, it must be done in order to show their citizens and the world that a demagogy cannot remain in power, no matter how long they have left. His pathetic and frankly encouraging responses to the protesters only confirms that he supported everything they have done!
I notice that not one Conservative UK politician has condemned Trump only condemned the rabble that attacked Washington, they are cowards!
The world is a tragic place at present, riddled with Covid and a collective loss of faith in any system democratic or otherwise but history shows us that we will get through it, don’t lose hope, in my experience the silent majority usually win and good sense prevails, eventually. It is up to all of us to be responsible and never give up!
Stay well
