Gordon, you are right. Excellent essay. What comes to mind is that the fight for the rule of law and democracy must be be waged at the individual and collective level. The Democratic Party needs to pivot away from its plethora of individual policy issues and focus on the fundamental issue that matters and is determinative. Is it capable? I’m reminded of the Lowell poem/hymn “Oft to every man and nation comes the moment to decide, in the strife of Truth with Falsehood for the good or evil side.” That moment is upon us.

I agree that "Like" is a pallid response to your passionate and eloquent essay. I hope it will be widely read. You nailed it.
