Let him put Mara Lago up against Greenland on a coin toss, I would so love to see his reaction being led out of his Florida home.

US history is January 7, 2021. The first day that we did not properly address the most severe attempt at destroying US democracy.

And a lot of corporations stepped up and said that they would not financially support any candidates who had engaged in supporting the failed coup attempt.
Even some Republicans made abortive attempts to hemhaw support for Trump.
But more Republicans, many corporations and about 15% of the electorate still supported Trump. And with no action forthcoming from the corrupted system of justice, most Republicans drifted back to support Trump and most of the ignorant and apathetic third of the electorate failed once again to give a damn.


Edit: And, in the end, we failed as a nation.

Yep. At least the 'establish justice' part. I would also lump in 'Promote the general welfare' in there as well. We have failed in both departments and we seem to enjoy it for some reason because we keep on doing it.

But, you also mention this:

And with no action forthcoming from the corrupted system of justice...

Hear Hear! Our very democracy was in danger and their response was to wait... and wait... and have a presser where they vaguely discuss things... and wait...

We may have failed, but we are the ones who have to get back up. We are the ones who have to fix this.

To borrow a quote from Black Lighting: 'By any means necessary!'

Let's hope others realize it has come to this.
