...the creeping normalisation of what was formerly taboo...

Terroristic Trump and Spaffer Johnson embody the corrupt void that conservatives, on both sides of the pond, have been progressively settling into since the 1980’s at least. A two-man personification of all the vilest qualities of conservatism. At this point, they may not have yet reached critical mass Nazi, but it could not be clearer that they undoubtedly show characteristic far-right tendencies… and the biggest issue we face, as we battle to hold onto our democratic norms and principles, is the creeping normalisation of what was formerly taboo.

HOWEVER – there is hope my dear friends. The UK Supreme Court just put a stop to the shenanigans of the conservatives in their attempts to suspend democracy. Spaffer Johnson just got an upper cut! It looks like Ukraine is the tipping point for Impeachment. Terroristic Trump will be running scared forthwith. Good people are not standing by and letting the democracy stealers get away with it. Proof we can still change course and divert away from this new normal and the current drift of history repeating itself and the end result of this far-right nightmare rearing its ugly head.



Huzzah!
