I fear the United States is entering the most dangerous period of its existence since the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Despite tonight's blue tsunami, Donald Trump and his enablers in the House and Senate retain the levers of power until the newly elected Congress takes office in January. These intervening weeks demand vigilance, not complacency.

The newly elected Democrats must begin the difficult work of reclaiming our democracy from the kleptocracy of the Trump administration.

And perhaps most importantly, America must reclaim its place as a respected, trustworthy leader of the free world—a nation whose leadership rests on democratic principles, the strength of its institutions, and the confidence of its allies.

The election is only the beginning. The work of restoring the republic lies ahead.
