Given all the lies and falsehoods Trump mentioned in Saturday’s phone call to the Georgia Secretary of State, his office held a news conference yesterday to rebuke those claims. Gabriel Sterling, representing Brad Raffensperger, in a calm manner and using facts went though each category of Trump’s election grievance and proved that they were wrong. Sterling acted as a true patriot and defended that every vote cast was valid and counted. Yet that didn’t stop Trump later in the day at a Georgia rally to repeat all of his lies. In short, the sitting President appears to be deranged, delusional and dangerous by continuing to insist that the election was taken from him although he can’t provide evidence on how that was done. Trump’s actions serve only to harm our democracy since the election result is set in stone and his departure from the White House on January 20th is a foregone conclusion. My greatest fear is that Trump’s actions will lead to street violence on part of his extreme right wing supporters unwilling to accept the will of the people. The past has shown that our democracy has gone through some major challenges but it has never fallen and it is destined to outlive this crisis as well!
