10. Yes, without accountability, we are giving tacit approval of their actions, and they go even further

We have been giving the wealthy and connected criminals a pass for far too long. The pervasive corruption in our system has decayed it from within and we all pay the price, currently, with ever-mounting death tolls. We need leaders who not only call out corruption but also who have the courage attack it head on. We also need citizens who pay attention and support an assault on corruption. A democracy isn’t sustained on apathy and are at a crossroads that will determine if the US, as we know it, survives. With a rapist at the helm, it’s not looking promising.
