In reply to the discussion: Did anyone else find themselves praying night and day for DEMs to hold onto our Democracy? [View all]TigressDem
(5,126 posts)8. Florida seems to have been lost a long time ago. BUT with DeSantis linked to tRump......
THINGS may begin to change.
DeSantis has been SELECTING people who were already elected.
tRUMP just outed DeSantis for election fraud.
IRONICALLY, the WORSE it gets, the more likely people are to rise up and fight back.
I think it will take the courts to change Florida and I believe I heard we are going to add more Supreme Court Justices to get a balance back so it isn't a rubber stamp for Rethuglican policy.

I'm sure He did in some cases, but parents don't always give kids what they want, neither does God.

I don't either. But DEMOCRACY is MORE than just DEMS it's the ability of the PEOPLE to self govern.

I'm not into petitionary prayer. I simply don't think I'm smart enough to give God advice.

Your position is consistent with the plan language of Jesus' teaching, mine takes mental gymnastics.

As I say, your position is clearly in line with the plan language of Jesus' teachings.
