We would have to go way back in American history to find another such corrupt administration. In fact, it appears as if this Trumpian administration will over top any and all that have gone before and force this nation to wallow in the filth of corruption, in its resultant and unavoidable agony and distress. For all that will arise for when governments choose deliberately the path through the reeking sulfurous swamp and take us along on this doomed trip all the electorate, willingly or not.
The question remains, what will come after this manifest mess of an administration? Will we be able to reverse or even stop it in its tracks, end its momentum, or are we too late, too immersed in the stink and the rot, too deep, too wide for any remediation? What will in fact we be forced to deal with here in America? Will there be a possibility of regaining our position as a role model to the world, of a functioning country, benefiting its citizens equally, striving to be better, to be fairer, to live up to the promise etched on the Lady of the Harbor and into the very makeup of a true American? Will we live up to the words of President Lincoln, "a government of the people, by the people, for the people"?
We have already strayed so far, rendered asunder so much of our basis, our ethos. The heaviness of the burden of a return to sanity and morality in government, to a strongly firmly structured three branch administration, could be overwhelming. However, there is no other way other than for us, the American people, to stand up to tyranny, rage against it, break it and return this nation to its former reputation and function, to its mutual responsibilities to and from its citizens, to a loyal cadre of legislators, judges, functionaries.
The necessity for a path to that achievement is clear as is the path. It is just that our eyes cannot see it, so blinded are we by the unbelievable events and composition of the current administration. This administration used our very democracy to turn all on its head and used it to negate all of its hopes and dreams, all of its promises and laws, spurning and casting aside any and all precepts of democracy, any of the rules in place which enabled this nation to live, to grow, to be a leader for the world, a role model for all. A place where dreams could come true and there were no false wizards behind curtains.
To do that, to avoid further enablement of travel on the most dangerous rotten road so inimical to us, to a positive future, we must do the same. Use any and all of the possibilities, the strengths and even the flaws of democracy, to cast out Trumpian inept and hostile personnel, and replace them with Americans once again. Those who believe in and are loyal to the precepts put forth by our founders. Those who abide by a fair system, all three branches of government, and not twist, pervert, deny and negate all that we have achieved over the centuries of our establishment as an independent nation.
We have lost our way, and we must wend our way back to it. We must get out and vote. We must stand in the streets and chant, wave flags, and stop the momentum of the ever-increasing degeneration of America, as she was envisioned, as she was, as she strove to be and who she is not any longer.
In that nation, it will not be a criminally indicted pathetic demented corrupted soul sitting in the Oval Office. It will not be a crook who misuses his power of pardon-to-pardon other thieves such as he. The corrupt, the inept, the perverted souls will no longer be welcomed into the administration. One who despises all that America is, who shreds the Constitution almost with every breath he takes, who stomps on it with contempt, with every step he takes, who rules by fiats as a dictator, who has destroyed the balance of America's government, will not be sitting in that Oval Office. He will instead be incarcerated where he belongs.
Time for Americans to understand it is time for America to stand up against him and his entire package. Time to stand up for America, for us. This Trumpian government is not our government. It's championed theories and modes of behavior are anathema to any civilized, modern right-thinking nation. Anyone who thinks and acts and behaves otherwise will be cast aside, to join in with the millions of those laid off, in desperate situation, unable to feed families, to educate children, to dream. Trump, never ever truly with the people, has openly turned this nation into a cash cow for his business empire and those of his uber wealthy.
The time for rescue of our nation is upon us. The time is fleeting for us to do so. We must out Trump the Trumpians, clear the air and find that road which will indeed and in fact lead us to the pot of gold at the end of it, even as the colors of the rainbow shine into it. We must physically, verbally, morally, stand against the usurpation of America, it's theft from beneath our feet, its eternal loss for all humanity. We must resist the damage of human boll weevils who have bored deep into our souls, weakened us almost to the point of no return. It is always more difficult to reverse than find detours and we are in the reversing situation. W must be strong, aware, determined, and understanding of truth if we are to succeed in turning this nation and our fates around, into positive friendly territory, rife once again with possibilities inherent in a nation such as America.
America of yesterday.
America as she was once, today, now failing.
America as she could be, with our help and determination for all
the morrows coming our way.
