76. True except.....

Sat May 9, 2020, 02:09 PM

May 2020

All true, but in the world of politics it is all about vote counting and living to fight another day. So, I will gladly accept the vote of any American and any and all help to defeat Trump. I also understand that I may find myself on the different side of any number of issues in the future as we literally attempt to LIVE and save our nation to fight for another day. We do not have to agree all the time to join together when our common interests align. This is the beauty of democracy and the art of compromise with the purpose of getting things done to move the nation forward, as opposed to consolidation of power by gridlock and division.
