MANY Americans. But I also believe MANY others got exactly what they deserved in the ensuing CHAOS from this ratfck maladministration.

For their deliberate ignorance, indifference, lack of vision, and self centered mendacity.

For their embrace of bigotry, hate based ideology, cruelty and pure evil.

For their negligence. For their failure to rise to the challenge.

Democracy and the principles we CLAIM it stands for, isn't a given. It doesn't run on autopilot.

It must be MAINTAINED, looked after and well cared for. It must be nurtured and PROTECTED, else it'll rot to the core.

EVIL NEVER SLEEPS.
