4. Maybe Americans can learn something...

But I doubt it.

When push comes to shove, a large majority of us will sit idly by and allow the final destruction of this country. By then we will be able to watch football teams playing, in empty stadiums. Better than nothing, I suppose.

I do hope that I am wrong. PLEASE prove me wrong...

5. Trump has enabled other right-wing despots (and vice-versa) so it's good to see....

....some serious push-back from the people. I hope that we take to the streets nationally as Trump and the Republicans pull out the stops on stealing the election. Let's take it up a notch starting on Labor Day (appropriately enough).
