The United States in Turmoil
The United States is on the brink of descending into a deep abyss, and it’s uncertain if we will ever emerge. November 5, 2024, could mark the date of the last legitimate election in our country. The warning signs became apparent when Donald Trump urged his “Make America great again” supporters to vote for him on Election Day as they would not need to vote again in the future. Initially, it seemed like a flamboyant display of his ego, but doubts have since arisen. Trump’s first attempted coup in 2021 failed, where he tried to manipulate Electoral College votes in his favor. Despite this setback, Trump persisted, inciting groups like the Proud Boys to storm the Capitol on January 6, 2021, aiming to overturn the election results by force.
An Era of Uncertainty
Following the chaotic events at the Capitol, Joe Biden was declared the election winner, but a cloud of “illegitimacy” has hung over his presidency. Trump continues to operate a virtual Oval Office from Mar-a-Lago in Florida, portraying himself as a shadow president to his loyal followers. Despite facing numerous legal challenges and controversies, Trump has managed to evade serious consequences for his actions. The notion of accountability for high treason seems elusive in his case.
