Unfortunately I have seen no indication that improvement happens. Before trump I could not believe we would have a president as stupid or irresponsible as bush jr. and before that I did not think any politician could top newt and then of course we have reagan. The trending direction is clear.
Right!?!?!?! I thought we hit rock bottom with Bush Jr and then this whole thing with Trump came along. I am starting to realize that it’s just going to get worse from here. If GWB wasn’t the worst then Trump will likely not be the worst.
I was really gobsmacked listening to the Ultra podcast by Rachel Maddow about Nazis infiltrating the government during WWII. The parallels were so frighteningly similar to today, but in a way reassuring in that some things never change. There will always be schmucks in politics trying to ruin everyone’s time. The struggle for decency is perennial.
Trouble is you need an event which causes a purge to get rid of them. WW2 was it last time. What will it be this time.
You think Trump’s the issue? Did you watch that fucking debate with dementia?
