So Trump is under fire for claiming the Civil War could have been negotiated…
He really shouldn’t open his mouth at all. Nothing good ever comes out of it. He either pulls what he claims directly out of his ass, or simply gives voice to the sludge Stephen Miller and others keep feeding him, serving it up to his adoring minions or a waiting press who still hangs on his every word, even if they’re knowingly waiting for the next dumb thing he says.
Trump reminds me of an out-of-control air hose, flailing erratically, kicking up dust and debris and making life difficult for anyone trying to stop it.
Most people know that whatever quest he’s conjured is way less than honorable, but we seem powerless to stop him. The Supreme Court could do us a favor and find in favor of the Colorado decision, even if that would/might lead to unrest and violence and feelings of disenfranchisement. It’s time to rip the Band-Aid off and stanch the constant flow of sewage, force the Republican Party to do some soul searching, find a sensible, rational voice. Or self-immolate.
Imagine what’s going on behind the scenes right now, in all three branches of government. There should be some interesting reads being published down the line.
