Agreed. The high-ground has been lost. Motivated Patriots moved on. Initiative fumbled. As great as the promised envisioned outcomes and future has been described, I think it may turn into some Pyrrhic victory as the days wane on, and we are crushed under an illegal entry of unwashed masses into our country. A Pyrrhic victory (/ˈpɪrɪk/ ( listen) PIRR-ik) is a victory that inflicts such a devastating toll on the victor that it is tantamount to defeat. A Pyrrhic victory takes a heavy toll that negates any true sense of achievement or damages long-term progress.
