I read and pay attention on the ground. I listen to friends and fam, talk to people at public places, and observe behavior at large.
My thinking and observation is on a 30 year trajectory. Hence the realization, based on the sum of our citizenry, that there are enough now to overturn our system and country. Enough who no longer know what they're supporting or do know and no longer support it. Precious few among us understand our founding, its documents, and what's at stake.
Even mingling in groups on our side, there isn't a deep understanding of the why or what by enough of us. More like running on momentum and fumes. Just the sad reality.
I think the ease with which wholesale changes are being made speak to the paper mache strength of our founding principles. The power lies elsewhere.
There isn't any functional organ of this society not dominated by the left anymore. Just each of our families keeping the flame alive.
