Open Letter: Processing assault on the American Dream
Open letter to my real estate peers. Inman News, a well-respected presence in the real estate ecosystem, is acknowledging what happened yesterday and but trying to avoid conflict by saying, “we’ll all process this in our own way.”
In response, respectfully submitted that the constitution has “a way to process” what happened and the first member of the GOP has joined calls by Democrats to invoke the #25thAmendmentNow:
“… President Trump to be removed by the 25th Amendment, “voluntarily or involuntarily.”
“The president caused this. The president is unfit. The president is unwell,” Kinzinger said.

Encourage Inman and other industry news sources to use this as a teachable moment, to remind readers that the American Dream is democracy itself. There are other themes to explore, not merely as a debating society but the recognition that real estate is the wealth engine of the country and it can be used to create more inequality or more commonwealth.
So let’s not try to silence the gravity of the moment by redirecting moral outrage to intoxicating eye candy. Mortgage rates fall to a new record lows today after America’s status in the world fell to new record lows yesterday.
Should we sit by watching America’s Nero fiddle while the American Dream burns? We have a “way to process” that, we must remove Donald Trump from office.
