We Must Overcome The Trump Presidential Campaign

If you don’t participate, then don’t complain. A “non” vote is the same as a vote for the Trump campaign. Where do you stand?

The timing could not be greater for the Republican Party. Their candidate survives a head shot; the Florida judge throws out the Classified Documents case on a procedural move and, with the help of Clarence Thomas from the Supreme Court, it looks like no trial before the November election even though sentencing on the 34 felony convictions in New York might come in September. As if these things were not enough, Democrats, with the aid of the media, are making all discussions center on replacing Joe Biden rather than rallying to support him and keeping the spotlight on the Project 2025 plan for a Trump Presidency which looks more likely everyday.

News Flash! The Trump Presidential Train can be stopped. How? Every person in America who is of voting age and able to register and vote, can help stop the Trump Train. 

The votes that we are able to cast must be laser focused on getting democrats and independents running for office, and also republicans elected to replace those who are a part of the Trump movement. We need a democratically elected majority in the U.S. House of Representatives to ensure that the House has a democratic majority. Such a majority will ensure that the Speaker is democratic and therefore guarantee that the Electoral College counting of the votes for the Presidency allows the transition of power intended by the Constitution. This is necessary even if Biden is re-elected.

We must likewise look closely at one third of the U.S. Senate which is up for election. The democratically controlled Senate is within one or two votes of becoming Republican controlled. It was a Republican controlled Senate that twice failed to convict former President Trump, even though he was Impeached on two separate occasions. It is both the House of Representatives and the Senate that can reverse the arbitrary and counter Constitutional Decisions of the U. S. Supreme Court on issues like Presidential Immunity while commiting crimes in Office, the overturning of Roe vs. Wade, and the Chevron Decision impacting regulatory agencies carrying out their legal responsibilities.

There are more of us in America who believe in our democracy and the rule of law than there are those who would replace what we have with a Project 2025 Authoritarian form of government. The real issue is not the age of President Joe Biden, with whom we have the safeguard of the 25th Amendment to the Constitution if he should become disabled to serve. The real issue is the damage that a Trump Presidency would do. 

Race is at the core of both the Republican Project 2025 and the Democrats seeking to replace Biden when he and Harris are the duly elected standard bearers for a democratic victory. Any discussion of finding someone to replace Biden other than Vice President Harris is racist and a violation of the process laid out in the 25th Amendment as mentioned above.

The time to register and prepare to vote, wherever you live, is now. The time to look at who is running for office in your City, State, or Congressional District of the Senate, is now. Your vote counts as much as those that will be cast at each convention and in November. If you don’t participate, then don’t complain. A “non” vote is the same as a vote for the Trump campaign. Where do you stand?
