And so we wait. There isn’t much else we can do this evening. The world stands atop a precipice as it’s most powerful country chooses between open, liberal democracy and a form of deranged totalitarianism. Should it veer one way, things will probably continue as they have; but should it veer the other, who knows what insanity, what brutality, may be unleashed. All we can do is hope, with every fibre of our beings, that it chooses the right path, keeps heading towards the light, and rejects the path back to a kind of darkness which the world has not seen in eighty years.
And so, once again, this evening we wait.
