The Right Words, At the Right Time...

“Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundation of our republic.” - President Joe Biden

We were surprised to discover that the big three networks, CBS, ABC, NBC were not broadcasting President Joe's "Fighting for the Soul of America" speech last night. Our local PBS station didn't broadcast it either. We did listen to it on NPR radio.

It was definitely a great speech. So of the moment. I agreed with EVERY WORD! Common-sensical. Level-headed. The right words delivered at the right time. I kept saying "Yes, of course."

The American Dream is an idea. One I have lived with my whole life. Sometimes things go my way, sometimes not, but I have never given up on the idea of Democracy, the Rule of Law, Human Rights, Progress, Fairness, Equality.

Yes, of course we need to turn away from Political Violence, and the retro-grade, Fascist MAGA Republicans. They do not represent USA. They have given up on the great idea of our American experiment. 

Most of us have not given up. We are still engaged, still dreaming, still working towards a better union. We all need to stand together to defend Democracy. President Joe said it all in one speech. Clear. Concise. Riveting. Perfect. I believe in the power of words. Words delivered in the right place, at the right time. It was that kind of speech.
