“Lawyers talk about “the practice” of law. We are “practicing” because we are constantly learning more, developing our skills, and getting better at it. We learn from our mistakes. We work harder. We get it right. We continue to practice. As Americans, we should treat democracy the same way: the practice of democracy, something we do together as Americans. When we make mistakes, even big ones, we can learn from them. We dig deeper so we can fix them. We get back to work. But what we cannot do is give up.”
