MSNBC political analyst Cornell Belcher said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that if Republicans win majorities in the 2022 midterms, we would “lose democracy.”
Belcher said, “Whether or not Trump endorses these Republicans or, you know, he’s backing them is moot because they all propagate the big lie. The big lie now is larger than Trump. It’s bigger than Trump. The big lie right now really is about fear. It’s about being replaced. It’s about the other. It’s about losing power, and so record, regardless of whether they are backing or being endorsed by Trump or not, across the board, you have these Republican candidates who are propagating the lie, and the lie is basically rooted in this fear of losing their country.”

So, we have no representation...I see....

When you see the word republic, the first thought in your mind should be, “a nation of laws”.
A government that is inefficient, that changes slowly.
The first thought should not be representative.
I didn’t say what “the first word” was that entered my mind...
We are a republic WITH the Constitution....
We HAVE representation from officials ELECTED by “the people”...
They learned by listening and discussing. I remember many political discussions being held in the tobacco barn, hay barn or corn crib while the men worked.
“A reminder that we need to start these conversations and not be politically correct..”
Amen!
One reason I’ve taken every opportunity to talk politics, one on one, with everyone younger than me. While I realize and admit upfront that I am less educated than they are, I also admit to having had access to personal education that they have missed. Lately, during the last five years, I have had younger people seek me out for political discussion. It may be because I listen to them and treat them like equals. Or maybe they look at me as the village idiot that they enjoy entertaining every now and then. Either way, I get through to a couple now and then.
