We can’t stop fighting because the stakes are too high and, despite all the MAGA misinformation trying to muddy the waters, the choice we’re facing on Election Day couldn’t be clearer.
I know you’re tired; I get it. You’re tired of the ads and the articles. You’re tired of the news painting a nation divided, the conspiracy terrorist stoking the fires of hate and the chattering class telling you don’t know any better.
Then, just when we thought nothing could surprise us, Donald Trump put on the most extreme, hate-filled, un-American and downright disgusting display any of us have seen since WWII with his rally at Madison Square Garden on Sunday. It had everything from Tony Hinchcliffe calling Puerto Rico a «floating island of garbage» to Trump himself doubling down on the unhinged conspiracy theories and fascist «enemy from within» threats that have dominated his campaign, particularly in its closing weeks.
I get it. I’m tired too. But I’m reminded of Italian general Giuseppe Garibaldi, who famously said, «I do not promise you ease. I do not promise you comfort. But I do promise you these hardships: weariness and suffering. And with them I promise you victory.»
I’m reminded of how Scripture teaches us «Let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.»
I’m tired too. But that doesn’t mean we stop fighting because the stakes are too high and, despite all the MAGA misinformation and fake outrage trying to muddy the waters, the choice we’re facing on Election Day couldn’t be more clear.
