It's a very sad commentary on the degree of seriousness of citizenship on the part of far too many alleged adults. I just finished Sarah Longwell's recently released book and in it she shared many comments from Trump voters in focus groups who explained why they chose Trump in 2024. Biden 2020 Trump 2024 voters are apparently a real thing. It was so depressing reading their comments I was left wondering if we really have any chance at all to sustain this 250-year-old experiment, one of the noblest undertakings in the history of humanity. Many voters have very little understanding of the nation and the world and how everything works, and they decide their vote strictly on what they perceive their own short-term interests to be rather than the long-term interests of the country which ultimately benefits everyone. Donald Trump as president is a ridiculous predicament. The world can see that clearly and they rightfully wonder about us. Most Americans, for whatever reasons, cannot. But not only is Trump ridiculous, more importantly he is at a very lethal intersection of malice and incompetence. And the evidence is overwhelming that he is aligned with our historical adversary the Russian Federation and makes decisions that serve their interests rather than those of the free world. It's going to take us at least half a century, if not more, to recover from this self-induced catastrophe should the opportunity to do so avails itself. God help us 🙏.
