A new ad from the Harris Walz campaign (above) shows that America can be a place of hope and change, but America can’t heal unless Trump and crew answer for their 2020 election crimes.The peaceful transfer of power is one of foundations of democracy. To keep our freedom long-term, we have to face the ugly truths on how we got in our current situation.
It’s not about politics. We have an obligation to hold Trump and his crew responsible because their actions strike at the heart of of what sets America apart from the world. The United States cannot be the “the shining city upon a hill,” if some of our leaders don’t care about the peaceful transfer of power. America was founded on the idea that we are a country of laws, not of men or women. Trump’s actions to subvert the peaceful transfer of power broke our country.
Why the Peaceful Transfer of Power is So Important
When one political party hands over control to another without conflict, it shows that our society is ruled by laws, not individual leaders. Our first president George Washington started the peaceful transfer of power and even during the difficult times before the Civil War, every president gave up their power. Until Donald Trump.
