This isn't about bragging or enjoying this moment, though there is an element of that, I won't lie. This is about the fact that in spite of all the feelings of being out of control for the last 2+ years, the system still worked. People fought against it at every turn, and it isn't over yet, but it worked. In 2018, we voted enough Democrats into Congress for this to even be possible. Our votes mattered. This is something we need to remember for 2020.
The Constitution doesn't mean anything if nobody chooses to uphold it. Today, enough people chose to uphold it, and justice was served. We need to make sure we continue electing people who will actually fulfill their oath to uphold the laws and Constitution. This great experiment in democracy, in a nation, isn't over yet. Today was not that day. And that, is today's very good thing.
