I get the point that Minnesota governor Tim Walz is making here, but I would call this an exaggeration. Sure, it a loss for those Americans who value rule of law, human rights, the U.S. Constitution, and decency/compassion.
But as we’ve learned to our collective horror, that’s most certainly not everyone.
Trump still has the full support of 37% of the American public. That in the neighborhood of 50 million voters.
If you believe that a loving God has a plan for you, and is steadily guiding you towards happiness, then you disagree with the assertion here.
The rest of us are forced to admit that the universe is cooly indifferent to us and the outcome of our lives here on Earth.
This doesn’t mean, btw, that our lives are meaningless, but it does compel us to create our own meaning as we make our choices as we go along.
Another point to be made here is that there is no “galactic cavalry” that is going to come charging in, guns ablazing, to save us from the criminal insanity of the Trump administration.
Mark Kelly, like the vast majority of his fellow Americans, wishes to see Trump removed from office, as the president is clearly criminally insane.
That doesn’t make him, or any of the rest of us, guilty of sedition.
One has to admire the Pope and how he’s trying to bring peace to our world.
It’s a shame this flies in the teeth of the aims of Donald Trump, the most powerful person on Earth, whose personal success depends on fostering division and hatred.
