Can we hang on to some fundamental truths?

Calling a racist a racist is not "playing the race card".

Accurately quoting a political figure's email comments is not "vilifying" them.

A coup attempt that narrowly fails is known as a "practice run".

Decency and consistency are just not as "newsworthy" or profitable as vulgarity and scandalous corruption.

Informed and involved voters are Trump's "Kryptonite".

Elections have consequences and every vote really does matter.
