Trump the former president sat in the White House.
Trump the former president had a great fall.
All the president’s enablers, children, and voters couldn’t keep him in the White House, as of Tuesday, November 3, 2020.
Should his deeds as president prove criminal rather than sterling, he may end up in the jailhouse.
Some Americans wished that Trump’s presidency were a fairy tale, but each day revealed differently. Far too many people thought that a wealthy businessman who talked tough, offered nonsensical promises and though even lacked scruples would somehow make for a great president.
Trump’s ineptitude as president was tolerated because of a booming economy, a sizzling Wall Street, and a selfish desire of Republicans to fill judicial judges’ positions, as well as those on the Supreme Court.
However, Trump’s fairy tale like presidency was interrupted by COVID-19 and quickly became more like tales of death and suffering. Because he panicked, he lied about the dangers the virus posed and failed to protect the Nation. Consequently, millions of people became infected and hundreds of thousands died. Suddenly people began to realize that Trump really wasn’t up to the task as president.
Trump’s day of reckoning was Tuesday, November 3, 2020. Once again, voters got to demonstrate that this is a government of, for, and by the people. An unfit president can escape punishment by a Senate that is more beholding to their party rather, than to the Constitution. But Trump and no unfit president will ever be able to escape the wrath of voters who’ve grown too tired, too fed-up, too united and too patriotic to allow this democracy to suffer the same fate as Rome.
There’s an old Negro spiritual entitled, “I Don’t Feel No Ways Tired,” that fuels the souls of believers to never give-up. One could probably add a line to the chorus that should surely bring tears of joy to voters that reads, “God didn’t bring us this far to leave us again with Trump.
While prayer is good, all souls headed to the polls to ensure Trump had a thunderous fall from the White House; therefore, this fairy tale like presidency, which became America’s nightmare ended.
