Have you ever? Since Washington graciously stepped down from 2 consecutive terms, sighting ‘term limits’ before there was such a concept, but conscious of not becoming another ‘king’ ; since an election was held in spite of a civil war without insults as to lack of voter integrity; since the tumultuous terms of Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton; since Gore vs Bush culminated in a democratic, fair and seamless transfer of power ... have you ever? If you want the most profusely and evident answer as to why s**t is this effed up, just look at the protagonist of the last 4 years of the American political landscape. As better minds once stated for all posterity: we hold these truths to be self evident. When a sitting president defaces the integrity of a free and democratic election without evidence, he undermines the very tenants of a just society. A ‘personality’ does not make a competent guardian of a ‘grand experiment in human endeavor.’ We made an egregious mistake America. Let’s move on and learn from it, America. With grace. With dignity. Enough already.
