    I would love to hear this in someone's speech:
    "Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought.
    To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears.
    To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool.
    To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen.
    To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies.
    To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery." - Octavia Butler

      Each and every line of what Octavia Butler wrote is the perfect description and a frightening prediction of what and who 45 is. The GOP sold their soul, honor, and decency to attain power by aligning with this chintzy Orange miscreant. Even if this stanza is not contained within a speech it should become a part of every American's consciousness.

    Enjoy the positivity, enjoy the enthusiasm, enjoy the massive crowds, and make sure that you actually *VOTE!*
    Enjoy (or just ignore) the favorable polls, and make sure that you actually *VOTE!*
    Enjoy the fact that trump, by increasingly trumping himself at being trump, seems to be digging his own grave, and make sure that you actually *VOTE!*
    *Complacency might very well be your biggest foe, dear people.*
    So make sure that you, your family, friends, neighbors, acquaintances, everyone you can reach who are not diehard trumpists, actually *VOTE!*
    Check your voter registration status, your ID, your polling location, everything about it, at least once a week.
    Donate if you can, volunteer, help each other out with transport, etc. etc.
    You *ALL* (even those of you in the red states) need to give Harris/Walz such a big landslide win that it will be impossible for trump to steal the election with his election deniers!
    You ARE the big majority, use your power; use your right to vote while you have it!
    And remember the importance of voting blue up and down the line, as well as in every state and local election.

    When America elected Obama, I started drinking Coke again.
    Often I had the feeling to have to express my appreciation for him and his administration by just drinking another Coke.
    Too late the dentist taught me, that this was no good idea.
    Than #45 anyway made one turning away from everything American.

    Obama shouldn't talk. His "movement" was 16 years ago. And at the end of it, he helped to create the Donald Trump that we know and love. It was his cockiness that done the Democrats in.
