A new, (possibly) semi-regular GGF feature that takes a look from multiple angles at an aspect of governing and governance currently making headlines. Today's episode: Elections
Will,
Thank you for being a calm and clear voice of reason.
You have presented us with the peril we face
from the loss of faith in the basic government function
of assuring fair elections.
Thank you for doing so gently but firmly.
I, like most of us, would rather look the other way.
When I look down the road to November (if not sooner)
I see rage and violence coming.
It is excruciating to contemplate.
I had already read the transcript of the interview with Dean Phillips.
That is one brave man to offer himself
to run for the Presidency.
I love Joe Biden but I agree with Phillips
that Biden should have stepped down months ago
and let a younger leader step up.
We are now, with the Iowa debacle,
witnessing the Trump juggernaut gathering steam.
Which way will there be more American blood shed?
If Trump wins or if he loses?
Either way, people will go berserk.
But I believe if he loses,
the right will go far more berserk
than the left will go if he wins.
Thank you, Will. The issues you present have been on the top of my mind, especially the outcomes if Trump does not win the election.
