Tens of millions of Americans need to take a long look in the mirror. [View all]

Their votes put this country on the edge of disaster, which we still have not yet escaped.

They created a threat for the entire world to cope with, when they decided to vote for the violent narcissist that wanted to be king.

It is easy to criticize them because they are deserving of criticism.

They knew what they were voting for. They loved putting on their crazy suits, their weird hats, and waving their huge flags. It was like a cheap thrill for them. They thought they "owned the libs". They owned nothing but their own ignorance.

But, they have a chance to help save this democracy, if they choose. Most are so deep into their dangerous fantasy that they are ready to go into the bunker and drink the koolaid.

In the end, we all have to live together. But, that does not make what they did any less difficult to accept.

Why did they do it? Someone could write a long book on that.
