Like it or not, in 2025, when it comes to politics, we're living in hard times -- truth or consequently times. It has been coming on for years. Actually, decades. In many ways, even before Trump, we, the Americans, were routinely accepting lies without calling them out.
Because it was easier. Or maybe because in the short run, it was profitable. Anyway, all that turning, turning, turning of blind eyes set the stage for the wannabe king who is currently trampling on the Constitution, taking food out of the mouths of children and tearing down parts of the White House.
Meanwhile, we're surrounded by ignorant fools who continue to think that having an outrageously greedy, totally meanspirited criminal as president is just peachy. Millions of MAGA cultists appear happy to pretend truth no longer exists. In facilitating Trump's rise to power, by allowing him to endlessly twist the truth into whatever shapes he pleases, the cult has helped him pollute the political landscape with clouds of poisonous lies.
But behind those dark clouds the truth still exists. It's called "reality." And, on Tuesday (election day), the endlessly prevaricating Trumpist Republicans lost, coast-to-coast. It's fair to say, "It was a landslide and truth won."
Consequently, the USA won.
