A Brief Comment from Doug Draper at Niagara At Large
Posted July 4th, 2021
January 6th. 2021 was insurrection day in America, and millions of Trump cultists continue to call it “patriotism”
America’s current U.S. President Joe Biden – a President that tens-of-millions of Trump cultist in the United States do not accept as their president – has tried telling the world that ‘America is back’ as a beacon for democracy and as a partner in the free world.
We hope so, but when you watch what is happening around so many Trump supporters going along with each and every assault on the values and institutions of American democracy as an act of patriotism, whether or not America is back remains a wide open question.
How many Americans are willing to stand up and speak out for the democratic values their country has long taken pride in standing for? We shall see.
How long will the values that Lady Liberty in New York Harbour survive, even as Trump and his cult followers work so hard to destry them?
Here is a short video on Lady Liberty you can watch by clicking on –

It doesn’t appear that anything in the US will change anytime soon. The country is so polarized that the two parties can’t seem to agree on anything including a decent infrastructure bill to fix the badly deteriorating roads and bridges throughout the country. You have to shake your head when you see this taking place. The 435 members of congress and 100 US Senators each make $174,000 a year plus all their perks and they are arguing that the package that is proposed is too high. Do the math ………………. you can see where cuts are needed.
