What the Election Taught Me.

The author shares insights and lessons from the 2024 U.S. presidential election. He expresses concern about possible decline of democracy and return of slavery, as well as fear of possible regression into violent unrest with the suppression of the civil rights of minorities, women and members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ+) community. He discusses the shift in the core values of Americans and the trend of doubling-down on a lie among politicians.
