Machiavelli opined, a leader should inspire love and fear. When in doubt fear works better.
We lack leadership that demands respect and trust. Trust must be called out, not in foxholes, but in the workplace, bars and churches.
Obama brought out the vote, but his agenda enraged the opposition. They could not handle his class and integrity. It destroyed their false superiority. Trump brought their pride in their weaknesses they refused to admit, to a full fledged exhibition.

Let us inspire the next generations, who accept diversity, to reclaim the progress the trumpers are working to erase.
