DEMOCRACY in the United States was killed on Jan 6, 2021, when the US Capitol building housing the Senate was stormed by a mob incited by former president Donald Trump. It was buried in a ballot box on Feb 13, when 43 out of 50 Republican senators voted not to impeach Trump.
That murder of democracy is being mourned by 81 million who voted for sanity and celebrated by 74m followers of former president Donald Trump. Its wake shall continue until 2022 when the next Senate elections take place the first mid-term electoral assessment of President Biden’s performance. Their result might disturb the presently poised 50:50 balance between the Republicans and the Democrats in the US Senate.
