One of the most insightful comments on America from someone who never existed

7. Okay, more people should vote. But until the elections are actually secure, this may not be enough.

IMHO, the country has made a mistake, A large blunder. The 47th blunder. We have made them in the past, and will again. So our task at the moment is to admit our mistake, correct it, and get back to working on the country's problems. I was chatting with a friend recently, and her idea is that we should arrest him. But, I noted, many people would fear that the Supreme Court has made any official act by the president legal and unreviewable. So my friend said, "Arrest the supreme Court for being in violation of the Constitution." I found this response deeply refreshing. We can impeach the SC, if not actually arrest them. This would cause a Constitutional crisis, but we have been in a Constitutional crisis since the 47th was sworn in, and DOGE marched into the offices of USAID.

What this country is about is the peaceful transfer of power in the major branches of government: the Presidency, Congress, and the Supreme Court. We have enough sharp lawyers and creative brains in Washington to figure out a method for the country to correct its error. The Democratic Party has enough smarts to devise a plan, and we will need some support from Republicans. And I think we are approaching the tipping point for Republicans to support this effort.

On this delightful 4th of July, when people are no longer being fried on the National Mall, let us dedicate ourselves to making the framers of the Constitution proud, by correcting our colossal blunder.
