Wellsprings of Hope

-

  1.  It may not seem like a Blue Tsunami. 
    1. Perhaps without the GOP sabotage of the electoral process, 
      1. combined with conservatives coordinating their sabotage with foreign state agents,
        1. the votes would have been tallied much faster to create a huge wave of voter response.
  2. Yet we have so much to be thankful for:
    1. The use of paper ballots thwarted efforts both internal and external to hijack the electoral process.
    2. The forces of white patriarchy in all their violence have been exposed; the warnings of Liberalism have been validated.
      1. Everyone now sees what we are really fighting for: freedom and equality.
    3. Rivers of dark money did not win the election.
      1. The 1% coup has failed.
    4. Marijuana legalization is trending across the country.
      1. For-profit prisons will lose much of their revenue.
    5. More senate seats will come into play in two years.
      1. The benefits of liberalism will help elect more Democrats.
        1. Mitch McConnell will face his reckoning.
    6. Biden and Harris can still do much to improve the USA's international standing and relationships.
  3. So dance and celebrate--carry this energy into the work that must be done to heal, repair, and restore.

Being in such power,  the power of life and death The GOP will shatter into factions Indeed, the GOP has already done so While drooling in anticipation The American people will suffer  from the fallout of GOP faction fights Sowing Death Destruction Misery Chaos Democrats have tried to prevent this horrific implosion Strove to demonstrate the responsible exercise of Power Authority The GOP will not go down alone Drowning in corruption Desperately trying to pretend All they are doing is Moral Righteous The GOP MAGA-Republicans will drag us all--ALL-- Down into the Hell of rapacious unfettered Capitalism Where everything--all-- Are for sale for the right price The price for so many of us will be our souls--our Our aspirations Our hopes Our dreams Our desires For a better world
