This country has been in a constant state of crisis since * was selected. |

(Am I wrong?) This is no coincidence, imo. Of course extreme weather such as hurricanes, resulting from rightwingers' historical neglect of global warming issues, is a wild card which might just take down these bastards. Problem is, the rest of US will descend with them. I feel total despair about any positive outcome right now. It will be absolutely no satisfaction to be able to say to the stupidest among us, WE TOLD YOU SO, even if we did. We will be suffering alongside them. I just hope that out of the ashes of our lives will grow a democracy filled with ethical standards valuing people above corporations, and acceptance of individuality above bigotry and narrow mindedness. Here's to hope!

2. Well, yes, but the selection was in the works. |
|
In fact, * is a simple hand puppet in the scheme of things. The horror extends far and wide away from him.

3. Mystics have been talking about the earth changes for years |

There are safe places to be, but they aren't near coasts or volcanoes. And not all of us will descend with those whose folly is bringing this nation to its knees. Get ready to survive.

4. Unless we are traveling, all I have to worry about is tornadoes. |
|
And as long as I'm home when a twister hits, we have an awesome basement with many supplies on hand.

5. Well I am a bit more of pessimist than you. I think it is going to have to |
|
get even worse before it will start getting better. I don't think nearly enough Americans feel as badly about things as you and unless/until they do it will just continue to get worse and worse. The only bright spot is it will indeed get better, I just don't know if I will live long enough to see it.
