This page records some of the reasons I find it essential that we not allow Donald J. Trump to serve as president again in 2024 or anytime in the future. Presidential elections used to be about the policies and goals proposed by the candidates. Behind all that has been the assumption that those goals would be pursured while respecting the rule of law and the constitution of the United States. Those were the good ‘ol days. Now we have a convicted felon running for office that promises to fundamentally change our system of government, and not enough people seem to take him seriously.
This is spot where I keep a running tally of some links that reflect the seriousness of this matter.
