What is liberty without wisdom and without virtue? It is the greatest of all possible evils....for it is folly, vice, madness...without tuition or restraint. --Edmund Burke.
“What is liberty without wisdom and without virtue?It is the greatest of all possible evils for it is folly,vice, madness without tuition or restraint.”— Edmund Burke
One thing you have to remember is that sometimes a candidate will promise things that appeal to extremist voters, knowing that they’d be impossible to carry out. As an example, there’s no way any president is going to get same sex marriages banned at the Federal level; that boat has sailed, and it’s not coming back.
This bad stuff has been percolating all over and mostly quiet, hidden. But the sentiment is old and one of the negatives of the USA from the beginning.
Just remember, the Declaration of Independence uses that order of words with deliberation: Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. There is no pursuit of happiness without liberty; and there is no liberty without life.

I learned a long time ago that it is unfair and narrow minded to judge a country by the people who run it.

It doesn’t matter when you voted.
It doesn’t matter where you voted.
It doesn’t matter who you voted for.
What matters is that you exercised this distinctly democratic privilege and voted !

God Bless America !

it’s a hundred years too late to worry about that. To get the Constitution back in control would require a massive eraser.

Don’t assume any boat that sailed can’t come back. Trump’s White Hoods have proved that.
