  • Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde's plea to Trump the day after his inauguration exemplified the principled criticism the president deserves regardless of his victory.

The article by Robin Abcarian, published on MSN, discusses the implications of Donald Trump's potential return to power and the notion that his political success might validate his controversial views and actions. Abcarian argues that despite Trump's enduring support and his ability to maintain a significant political presence, his return does not mean he is "right" about his policies or his approach to governance. She points out that Trump's tactics, which include spreading misinformation, attacking democratic institutions, and promoting division, are detrimental to democracy. Abcarian emphasizes that acknowledging Trump's political resilience should not be confused with endorsing his methods or his vision for America, which she describes as self-serving and contrary to democratic values. Instead, she suggests that his influence should be a call to action for those who oppose his ideology to engage more actively in the political process to safeguard democratic principles.
