Political courage

You've got to fight to make what's right

I don't pretend to know what the best political calculation for Democratic electoral chances in 2020 concerning the impeachment of Russian tool Donald Trump is, but I do know that it is the right and moral action to take.  If we walk away and let Trump run roughshod over our Democratic norms the nation will rue the hell we unleashed.

Elizabeth Warren did not hesitate to make this distinction last Friday when she became the second Democratic Presidential aspirant (Julian Castro was first) and the first serious contender to call for impeachment.  Warren has thus far run a very thoughtful campaign (which I fear may doom her--a woman and smart? Pshaw!), but she showed no fear in championing an action that as yet no one knows how it will play among voters because it is what we should do regardless of our electoral quests.

With each passing day Elizabeth Warren is showing us that she has the intelligence, wherewithal, and courage to be the anti-Trump that puts America back on the right track.

Here's hoping Democratic voters have the prescience to follow her lead.

Fuck Donald Trump,
