Letter: Progress always triumphs

Typewritter, letter to the editor

To the Editor:

Lame duck President Trump has a cultish stranglehold around the necks of his loyal lemming-like lickspittles.

These people would jump off a cliff if he asked them to, but he would not reciprocate, because he has no respect for the very voters who support him.

They’re so brainwashed, he’s convinced them that anything he says or does is morally righteous despite incontrovertible evidence to the contrary.

Can you imagine how these wackos would be acting if Trump had won the popular vote by 500,000, yet lost Florida by 537, as Gore did in 2000, and had the Supreme Court give the victory to Biden? They’d probably be heading to D.C. with long rifles in their hands and anarchy on their minds.

History shows that the wheels of justice, fairness and inclusion,albeit slowly, ultimately prevail. Trump and his extremist ilk will always exist and will occasionally score an unexpected short-term win, but in the end they inevitably lose because progress always triumphs.
