A Biden win in 2024 will not end the MAGA attack on democracy. There still the Ferealist Society, Heritage Foundation, Supreme Court and billionaires who think they can buy elections. MAGAs are embedded in local governments and state governments. Our fight for democracy will have to continue well past 2024

It is going to be a long, hard, and difficult slog to keep fighting this battle. It involves hours of hard work, and doesnтАЩt involve violence or riots. One difficulty we seem to face as a country as the late William Greider noted, Americans only seem to make changes in response to overpowering events, like the Great Depression bringing on the New Deal. The Republicans (and a few Democrats) have been gradually bringing on the economic decline of the American middle class, and they lie about Democrats to their captive audiences to get them to believe the worst of us and to attribute to us opinions we do not support. They hope to keep their mobs (and thatтАЩs what they are) stirred up against us rather than to think critically about where our problems are really originating.
I agree Patrick, the lesson is the fight never ends. Birch Society, KKK, Neo-Nazi party, Heritage Foundation, Koch Bros., etc. and all the bad guys are always lurking, it's the extent of their following that increases or diminishes. But Trump losing and getting jailed will be like the Allies landing on the beaches in Normandy, the fight continues but the result is no longer in doubt.

The fight for freedom has to continue forever. Evil will rise up snatch freedom away at every opportunity.

Yes-well said. Our problems will take many years to sort out if we can ever live up to our ideals.
