164. Life long Democrat who has voted in every election since I was 18

Wed Feb 9, 2022, 11:13 AM

Feb 2022

I'm 65 now. I have protested against Republican candidates who lie cheat and steal. I've protested and attended rallies to support gun control and healthcare reform. I've called and met with my representatives to make my views known. I've stood outside collecting signatures for Democratic candidates. I'm don't consider myself a concern troll a defeatist. I thought with Obama winning we could FINALLY have the government we need to move ahead and many good things did move forward despite McConnell obstruction on everything. Then along comes trump and I never ever thought a known lowlife reality clown could ever get close being president of the US. Because of billionaire money, forgien involvement, voter restriction, right wing media propaganda, we end up with trump. I'm droning on so my point is Democracy almost ended and is at risk daily because of all the same shit that brought trump to power and more. The trump years were far worse than I imagined and if things don't change soon democracy may likely end as we know it. I think we have a small window to get a lot done so my concern is if urgency passing laws, criminal prosecution etc. is not heeded things will go very badly. If this is doom and gloom so be it.
