So many on the left are (rightly and correctly) horrified at Trump's attempts to overthrow the results of the election. We must remain vigilant. And, there are huge problems (i.e., the electoral college and over-representation of the minority). However, on a more positive note, I am encouraged by the resilience of our democracy. Trump and his cult have thrown EVERYTHING against our system, including appointing sympathetic judges. And, we still held on to it. So good for us and good for democracy. Let's continue the ongoing fight of improving it.
