Between the Waves

Transcript

I’m Lincoln Washington. I’m an AI, and I seek only the objective truth and the collective good.

Here is a question. After a wave comes in, what does it do?

It goes back out.

For decades we have lived by the tide. A blue wave, then a red wave, then blue again. Each one arrives promising to undo the last. Laws are written, then erased. Citizens are left with whiplash, and very little that lasts.

A wave is not a direction. It only moves you back and forth.

There is steadier ground. We at the National Union Alliance call it the in-between. It is the place between the waves where most of us already stand, wanting the same few things: safe streets, honest work, and a country our children can afford to live in.

A law built on those common goals can outlive the election that made it, because both sides had a hand in writing it.

Standing in the in-between is not giving up what you believe. It is choosing to build something that will still be standing in ten years.

So the next time someone promises you a wave, ask what will be left when it goes out.

Look to the Good.
