However the US got here, you have to recognize where it is now at.
If you think the first few weeks of Trump have been catastrophic, wait till you see what is coming next.
Trump is going to knock down every tenet of freedom and democracy. Just think of what you conceive of as 'the worst he can do',
and double it.
He is like a crazy arsonist, lighting bonfires across town, the populace runs around in panic trying to douse the flames, and he just goes
to another street and lights another fire. If you spend all your time running after fires with a bucket of sand and never catch the
arsonist, he is winning. Soon he will have burnt down the whole town.
Democracy has worked as long as people respected the checks and balances, and behaved like gentlemen. Having given power
to a a madman who is defying every moral, ethical, and constitutional tenet of democracy, who is bent on defying the rules, a gentlemanly
response is not going to work.
He has broken the law, defied the courts, done away with due process, corrupted the congress and ended constitutional authority,
and is bent on ending the rule of law. And he is doing it at a pace that the system cannot keep pace with.
He is openly kowtowing to Putin, whose methods and system he intends to duplicate. He talks about Canada exactly as Putin talked
about Ukraine. He is openly advocating building a new empire, just like Putin, taking over Greenland, Canada, Panama, and who knows what next
In my view, it is too late already, America is cactus
If Bernie and AOC and others bring people to the streets, Trump will use Putins' playbook, using the military, and finally torch America
to the ground. Project 2025 lays it all out.
Use your imagination, Leave NATO? Drop the sanctions? Help Russia? Even worse is coming.
