One-Liner Wednesday: resistance

Vote for Democracy #33

In the midst of the vindictive, mean, immoral, unconstitutional, illegal under both national and international law, threatening, and insane beginning of the Trump administration, millions of Americans have mobilized to oppose Trump and his actions and, we hope, to limit the damage to people in the United States and everywhere in the world; we appreciate the support from all our friends and allies and I personally want to thank my Canadian friends who have reached to me in solidarity.

    1. Dear Joanne and Devon,

      The USA seems to be imploding, and its cancer has metathesized even more!

      Speaking of resisting and passing the test of being unswerving and consistent even in the most difficult circumstances requiring significant sacrifices, I would like to inform you that in a special post, I have been featuring an exemplar of a politician, statesman and chancellor from ancient China, who was so upright and unflinching in his integrity and honesty that if any of those USA senators had even just a fraction of his goodness and decency to perform their duties and to go against the POTUS, the USA would not have sunk to such an intractable, dangerous and protracted quagmire. The upright character of this particular politician, statesman and chancellor has been immortalized in a poem, which is featured and explained in my special post entitled “Strong Wind Knows Tough Grass” published at

      Even the courage and sacrifice of some upright US politicians such as Matthew Hoh (whom I admire) would be severely dwarfed by those of the central character of my post. This politician, statesman and chancellor had been fired six times and rehired six times, and still he persisted in his upright approach and upstanding ideal. He even surrendered and dedicated his own lands, real estates and military power! If only many more people in the financial, business and political spheres can learn from and be more like the upright character that I feature in my said post. In my own words, this historical figure is the personification of enduring loyalty, integrity, bravery and forthrightness achieved with benevolence and righteousness, but without favouritism and transgression. He was certainly not afraid of being fired half a dozen times. And such a person would certainly speak up and oppose corrupt leaders and politicians without any fear of losing their job, reputation or life.

      This special post also demonstrates that China used to be astoundingly and profoundly much of what it is not.

      I welcome your input since I am curious to know what you make of my said post as well as your perspectives on those matters discussed in my post. I look forward to savouring your feedback there!

      Yours sincerely,
      SoundEagle🦅

    1. I hope so, too. Not only did DT not gain a majority of the votes cast, an even larger number of eligible voters chose not to vote. I think that a lot of Trump voters are regretting it now, especially if they are feeling the direct effects of the chaos.
