No more "What If's" cause we are at our final "What Now" moment

This moment was predicted 4 years ago by everyone who saw this coming. That is why we voted for Hillary Clinton. Hillary warned us all that this day would come. It seems like we as country stood frozen for 4 years and watched it all unfold .... and even now seemingly paralyzed (because repubs) we watch this monster sitting in OUR House, to do whatever he does to violate every norm and law. Yes battles were fought, exhausted everyone.

Our What Now moment means to me ........ summon a back bone of steel like never before and do not bend. I believe we have great leadership in place with the Biden team, they will not let us down. WE, can't let them down. No BS right now with the party politics as usual. Together, Joe and Kamala have back bones of steel, look at all they have to face without the traitors. Don't worry so much about next month or next year because they need us NOW!!!! SHOW THEM WE ARE WITH THEM and all our elected Democrats!!!! YES!!!! UNITED WE STAND, stronger than before. Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi and look at Stacey Abrams ... still kicking back hard at unrighteousness. Thank you for listening. I'm fired up!

Trumpism was "repudiated" by a rousing 51-47 margin. I don't take much comfort from that. Biden got the job done, but his was not a strong candidacy and the majority of the GOP is still in thrall to this lunatic... and jonesing for a new high

into a tizzy because they can't square trump's behavior with anything they can defend. Neighbors here in Michigan that I have spoken to are simply slack jawed by all this. They want to move on already. Of course there is trump mania, not discounting that truth one bit but the walls are crumbling. If there is violence by trump and his followers on Jan 6th I think it is going to be over for the crawling vomit cult. No where to go but down. Could be wrong of course, just my 2 cents. But that is why Back Bones of STEEL (spelled correctly) until we beat them back together and we have come this far and how remarkable a victory it has been all the historians have said.... no matter how slim.

We are proud of your sacrifice and we know that all of you men and women stand at the ready just in case we need your back bone of steel, if your Country needs you. Don't think that all liberal Democrats spit on the troops because that is a fucking lie too. All the beautiful young men from poor urban and rural areas were shipped off and yes many signed up because they believed in the cause. Well, this American and I am not alone, does not forget any American who served over seas in any War. Period! I am a pacifist at heart but that has nothing to do with your service to our Country. I wish it never happened to anyone is all. Also, BTW, I have a nephew, Captain Army Ranger serving somewhere in ??? now and another nephew Marine stationed ??? So God keep them safe!

All genders, all ages, all races.

That the unspeakable cabal in the WH and Senate plowed on regardless is not our doing.

Other than that, point taken.

I think I did say that we got exhausted for fighting. But now is the time for finding our new strength .... Democrats, united as one. Strange because we have always been known as the party of trying to "herd cats" ... and we are stronger for that but for the short term we must stand strong with our team and show them all the support we can during this trying time. The last thing Biden needs is us to cause flack. He has so much on his plate. So lets make it as easy as possible for them is all.
