What I wish I could say to the rest of the world, on behalf of all democracy and all freedom and democracy-loving Americans:
Dear World,
On behalf of the United States of America, as an American citizen, I wish to offer my sincere apologies for presenting you with the disgusting and criminal Donald J Trump, along with his subservient minions, “puppets-for-Putin” and severely misled followers, for the past 9 years.
Please know that we, the people of the United States, we who are not corrupted by lustful and criminal, infinite greed, have never had the intention to disgust and alarm you. We have been thrust into the challenge of nefarious and severely malignant forces within our government over the years who are continuing to chip away at our democracy. In fact, they never let up. We have been passionately engaged, however, in persistent, valiant and tireless efforts to remedy that.
We fully recognize it to be a dereliction of our collective democratic duties as United States citizens that we were not paying close enough attention over the years to what was occurring, largely allowing the degradation of our democratic systems to happen. For this, we apologize. It bears repeating: we are working hard and with great and urgent persistence to remedy this.
The behavior and criminality exhibited by a certain faction of our government do not reflect the views and opinions of the vast majority of the American populace. Additionally, over the past few years, and in anticipation of another upcoming Presidential election, we have been painstakingly organizing, proactively fighting back against the overwhelming number of repeated assaults on our democracy.
Please take heart. The number of people who are aware and engaged in saving our country from an authoritarian takeover, similar to those that have happened in other countries, far surpasses those who are not actively engaged. The recent raising up of Presidential candidate, current Vice -President to President Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, is in actual alignment with our positions, views and convictions. It is our sincere hope that your awareness of demonstrably true American democrats has given the sense that we, as a nation, have not gone so insane as it may have been appearing.
As you are likely very aware, the Cold War with Russia has in recent years morphed into a war that has proven itself to be much more challenging to detect. It is a silent, cyber war, rife with tactics for mind manipulation. It amounts to what might be called psychological warfare, the under-the-radar pushing of racist and fascistic lies into the minds of gullible, under-informed and largely unsettled Americans, harboring deepest anger against unfair systems.
For years now we have been faced with the challenge of primarily the Kremlin blanketing social media with false information largely under the facade of “news” maliciously designed to divide us. This has contributed to the demise and degradation of many American people’s minds, robbing them of any semblance of morality and humanism. Nefarious Russian sources have injected hatred and vitriol-inducing, violence producing, fake rhetoric, channeled through media outlets like FOX and others, who continually play upon their viewers’ sense of being victims. They make unsubstantiated claims that our government is rife with rigged systems,” rigged by democrats. They call themselves “MAGA”.
In short, let us declare the truth: MAGA is NOT us. MAGA does not represent America. Not at all.
MAGA is clear evidence of Putin’s invasion of American minds.
The people whom WE support, who serve as our representatives in government, are those who uphold democracy and all its principles. This applies not only to American democracy, but to democracies around the world. WE-the-people reject authoritarianism and all that it stands for. We-the-people believe and adhere to standing up for unity, cooperation and truth; to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all.
Anything you have borne witness to that opposes that can, with highest of likelihoods and prevalence, be traced to the malevolence of enemy countries hell-bent on taking down the world’s democracies. America is the jewel in the crown that dictators are salivating over.
But WE are fighting back. Successfully.
In closing, we would be remiss to not mention the spectacle of Donald Trump yesterday with President Vladimir Zelenskyy following an ill-conceived and shockingly inappropriate meeting between the two. Publicly and humiliatingly we witnessed Donald Trump clearly leaning into his fealty to brazen war-criminal Vladimir Putin. This was vastly humiliating, despicable and inexcusable. For that, on behalf of the ignorant and grossly maligned and manipulated American minds, we profusely apologize.
Donald Trump’s support of Vladimir Putin does not reflect in any way, manner, shape or form the views of THE democracy-supporting populace in the United States. We further apologize for the criminal United States Supreme Court enabling him by allowing him to run again for President. Once again, we are working fervently to stop the madness of this overt and inexcusable corruption.
We support Ukraine, we fully support NATO and we are working hard to make this world a healthier and better place for all. We promise to continue to strive to do better; to win in our strengthening of American democracy, and democracies around the world.
We are your friends. We are your allies. WE are not the enemy.
WE, with you, are fighting back on all enemies to freedom. WE are with you, not against you.
And WE the American people, stand together with you, always.
May peace prevail on Earth.
Signed,
The United States of America (the real one.)
