What’s “Enough?”
Human greed and indifference to the suffering of others didn’t just emerge on the scene in the last four years, but they certainly have been greatly amplified in a blink of an eye, haven’t they? The U.S. president was elected largely because his supposed wealth was the object of the envy of the undereducated working class.
The obscene enrichment of a very few and the extreme suffering of the many are the defining characteristics of American life today, especially in the face of a pandemic in which 22 million have lost their jobs, one-third of whom are suddenly without healthcare.
If there is a path that leads towards a sustainable civilization, it is most certainly not rooted in the disenfranchisement of the vast majority of the world’s population, leaving masses of the hopeless and apathetic.
Enough–that’s a good concept.

My cousin-in-law voted for Obama in ’08 and ’12. A few years later, after a short but steady diet of Fox News, she told my wife, “Obama is a terrorist,” and “Trump is making America great again.” My wife gently challenged her, but this went nowhere. The words “I’ve done my own research” are what ended this brief but sad conversation.
Here’s a conversation between a Fox News devotee (who still happens to be a friend) and me:
I can’t imagine what’s “murky” about asking (then begging, then threatening) someone in a position of authority to change the results of an election without evidence that there were voting irregularities and that the count is therefore incorrect.
When I came across the statement at the left, I mentioned to its author that the majority of American share liberal values.
Here’s a Trump supporter who actually makes an excellent point. The only reason we have Biden is because we had Trump, and 81 million people made him disappear.
It’s enemies’ (with an apostrophe after the s), but outside of that, 
The Democrats have to be favored in Georgia here, because:
shame, I had never really twigged on this until people started talking about it over the past few days.
In an hour-long phone call, Trump alternatively begged and threatened Georgia’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find him 11,780 votes,” the number needed to overturn the state’s election results, according to those who listened to a tape recording of the conversation.
