When will enough be enough for Americans?

Metro Creative Connection

Ever have a parent turn to face the squabbles in the back seat and say, “Don’t make me stop this car?” You knew then that enough was enough unless you wanted to walk home. Have we reached enough is enough in America with the present administration?

Is the “Big Beautiful Bill” the last straw? Are the irrational tariffs the last straw? Will the millions of Democrats and disillusioned Independents finally say “don’t make me stop this car” as we careen down the highway to total dictatorship?

The slim election win was not a mandate. Will the disillusioned wake up to realize the power of one is great when united?

Look at the chaos, anti-American and undemocratic direction of the past six months: Executive order after executive order taking away freedoms, alienating the USA from long-held alliances with NATO countries and our neighbors. Creating an internal assault on nonwhite ethnicities, whether citizen or immigrant. Ordering the military into American cities to presumably protect masked ICE and DHS agents who are breaking the law to arrest and deport illegal immigrants, citizens of the wrong color and naturalized citizens alike, without due process.

How about grifting, using the highest office in the USA for personal gain with the production and naming of Bibles, shoes, watches and perfumes? The frivolous lawsuits to get colleges and the media to succumb to the pressure of financial ruin if they do not acquiesce to the president, what about them?

The Supreme Court has made our 47th president the first king of the USA, not by bestowing a title, but by bestowing extreme power, ignoring legal precedence and the founding documents of our nation.

It is time to speak up, realizing that unchecked power in the wrong hands is detrimental to the future of our country. Let my power of one join your power of one as we rise up to protest against an unbestowed king. Peacefully join the next “No Kings” protest near you.
