Intense piece. I just hope the security for Harris and Walz is tight.

Agreed - political violence is nothing new. Violence evolves from universal human emotions such as hate, jealousy, greed etc. it is as old as time and anyone is capable of it. What appears to be new is the unprecedented direct calls for violence from not only the ex-president, but also his many enablers. They don’t even bother to veil it in any way.

Outstanding synopsis on American political history! There's no "silver bullet" or "miracle drug" that is the remedy for so many convoluted ailments. With a President Harris administration and pro active majority Democratic Congress in both chambers, America will be moving in the right direction to maintain our fragile democracy.
