America is in a cold civil war and has been for awhile, there is nothing new in this, the election merely brought clarity to the national situation. Only one side is waging cold civil war and they are the fascist side, since their support of Trump after four years defines them as such, not me. The republican side or a large portion of it opted out of liberal democracy when they support unconstitutional action, law breaking, election cheating and election repudiation. Liberal democracy is incompatible with fascism, in the end it must be one or the other and this is the real problem America faces. A bare majority of Americans actually believe in liberal democracy and almost half of the country does not, they claim to, but their votes say otherwise. The choice was stark and clear, there was no doubt about the facts for any intelligent reasonable person. The deaths of 223,000 Americans made no difference at all to almost half the nation, if you don't care about each other how can you love your country?
I remain hopeful however, once the passions and tribalism subside a bit, Trump brought the level of fear in the nation to a fevered pitch and it had it's effect. Joe is calm for a reason, once you allay their fear you can open up the minds of some, but you can't push them too hard too quickly. Once there is a little distance from Trump and there is a bit more historical narrative and criminal court cases. The most important thing is Trump will be gone from the presidency and soon after that public view, Donald will be in prison and America will live, even if many Americans won't.
If Joe can knock down covid in 3 months and get things back in order by summer it will help the democrats a lot. Joe will be a president and he will lead and he is starting already, masks can save over 100,000 American lives and if a normal American president can save 100,000 American lives, I would suggest nobody get in his way or you will be behind razor wire or in jail.
