The View from the Tenderloin


The View from the Tenderloin

We are in the final stretch, and people are paying attention. Everyone, finally. Here is my take from recent events, short and sweet.

A republican Senator, Lee, said out loud what they try not to. Democracy no longer works for them, and shouldn't be the end goal.

Ok, let's go there. If you want to know what their end goal is, think South Africa about a generation ago. Minority rule, enforced by a brutal police state. That's what they want. It's not what I want. Their purpose is as ugly as their souls.

This election, distilled down, is about whether or not this democracy lives another day.

Hold those dear to you close

God save the Republic
