Other Voices: At a third world precipice
Many Americans believe that if the MAGA movement fails, American culture and values will be destroyed and we will truly become another third world country.
Places where MAGA policies prevail have law and order; a fair and honest legal system; a work ethic causing much lower rates of homelessness; not so much rude, crude and dishonest behavior by leaders; and smoother-working and more diverse economies. As the Democrats’ strongholds collapse from bad policies and leadership, the wealthy leftist elites flee to the more civil areas occupied by the MAGAs. This is amply exemplified by what is happening in California, New York, Illinois, Michigan and other leftist states and cities.
In fact, freedom seekers from failed nations and political systems around the world are crashing our gates. Our salvation may depend on the votes of the Hispanic and Black communities as they, more and more, reject blind adherence to the liberal agenda that is obsessed with color and gender.
There is no use looking to white Democrats to salvage “old America” because they are firmly dug in against Making America Great Again.
