I’ve been thinking since the inauguration took place, and it started to become clear that this Presidency was in deep, deep trouble, that there was no way for Trump to last for four years. As the inimitable David Brooks has said, “After all, the guy will probably resign or be impeached within a year.” So, I thought, the AlwaysTrumpers will have to admit that they were wrong, right? And then maybe we can go about the business of rebuilding the tattered remnants of the Republican Party, or perhaps start a whole new one built upon true conservative principles.
It’ll take a long time, and in the meantime we’ll probably have eight years of Elizabeth Warren. (You thought a Hillary Clinton presidency would be bad? Ha! Try a female Bernie Sanders. And in that vein, since I’m inside a set of parentheses and can say what I want, why on earth did Mitch McConnell make a martyr out of her, that is, Warren, by shutting her up on the Senate floor? So that she could read the Coretta Scott King letter about Jeff Sessions on Facebook and get about 10 million views instead of the couple dozen or so watching C-Span at 2:00 AM, or whenever it was? I mean, did Warren pay him to do that? It’s the only answer that makes any sense.)
Come on, folks! Let’s all get a grip and see what’s happening right in front of our eyes! Our government is in chaos and the Russians just broke a treaty by firing off that rocket. We need to get on our knees and pray for this country, and then get up off our knees and call the offices of our representatives. Just say, if nothing else, that you want the Trump administration, beginning with the President himself, held accountable. Subscribe to some good, solid news sources. And then read them. We can’t do much, but we can do something.
