In 1969, Richard Nixon asserted that there was a large group of Americans who held traditional American values and who voted but avoided public attention. He called them the “silent majority.” His reelection proved his theory correct. That majority still exists and is beginning to react to our current political environment.
They became the “angry majority” and elected Donald Trump in 2016. Nothing since Trump left office has lowered their temperature. Oppression of their rights doesn’t cool anger -- it inflames it. American citizens have never been subjects and aren’t likely to accept that status now. The left needs to keep two things in mind: Those who value their liberty are still the majority, and eventually their anger will turn to action.
Our political leadership better get a clue before it’s too late. If the majority’s voices are silenced, their actions will be loud.
