I'll bet most Americans cannot imagine how their support for Trump's strongman vision of America would affect their comfortable lives. Under a "strongman regime", my sense is that no single person would be able to carry out their daily lives and routines without fear and distrust. (Exactly what a strongman leader desires.) Fear would be pervasive.throughout society: schools, churches, neighborhoods, government offices, even hospitals. I question how I would be able to carry out my daily life in such a world. Without rule of law, without free press, freedom of thought, freedom of expression, how could any of us trust our neighbors, strangers, even friends. Teachers, professors, clergy, scholars, librarians, bureaucrats, artists, media personalities would be in danger. The man in the orange hair promises retribution. His secret power would be his ability to keep his followers guessing: Who will be next? That frightens me. And shouldn't that image of imminent danger, fear, and retribution frighten all of us. I hope it frightens all of us enough to go straight to the voting booth and vote Biden and Democrat next elections. We must all do everything to prevent this "strongman vision" of America.
