Then we accept the consequences of our inaction. And don’t get me wrong I am perfectly aware of my own hypocrisy. It is easy for me to write this, less so to act on it. But movements don’t often explode from zero to 100 in an instant. They build. And this one is building.
If I remember correctly it was June of 1972 when the Watergate burglars were arrested. It was late 1974 when Nixon was implicated and resigned - more than 2 years. This is going to take time. And it is going to require a number of key defections from people who are currently still in denial and still reflexively defending Clinton and the previous administration. Remember Nixon won in ‘72 by a massive landslide more than 60% of the vote. 2 years later more than half of them demanded his ouster.
If it is too early to clog the streets, fine. But it is definitely too early to stop the rhetorical arguments. This is a battle that can be won, without firing a shot, on the basis of principle and rule of law. To lose this battle is to admit we the people of the Unites States, of all races, creeds and colors, have lost the country (which we already have, but have not admitted it yet) to the clerks and by the corruption of our leaders.
