You will
regret not fighting to defeat them,
to risk all
for the sake of democracy,
for the idea
of America itself.
We must act
like they are the threat they are.
Democracy is already
almost lost.
When Democrats
are sitting in prisons
the enemies
of Trump, the coup d’etat,
after the
next insurrection is successful.
You may think
this can never happen here,
that History
will judge the insurrection.
You may believe
that justice,
that right
will surely prevail;
but you risk
a horrible cost.
We must act
like they are the threat they are.
Democracy is already
almost lost.
Those that incited
the Capitol Riot,
that fuel the
fire, remain in office, in power,
spewing their
propaganda, their insidious lies.
Think of them
as accomplices, co-conspirators,
as guilty as
those who stormed the Capitol.
Why
are THEY still in power?
Why
haven’t they been indicted?
Why
aren’t they sitting in prison?
Fight
like they are the threat they are,
to
Democracy, to America itself.
