There are a lot of troubling things about this White House and the government . . the people responsible don’t have the nation’s interests at heart, and there is no accountability for bad (at best) and criminal (at worst) behavior.
I thought Republicans would rise to the occasion and put partisan politics behind, but, like the frog in the hot water, they are boiling our democracy to death. I think the next attempt to fix the Presidential election will be for the President to manipulate the timing of the election, as the Republicans are doing in Wisconsin.
Of course, they say this is impossible. The President can’t postpone a presidential election.
It was inconceivable that the President could commit out-and-out criminal acts and have the Senate (read government) support his activities. He removed inspectors so he wouldn’t have to be responsible for his behavior. He packed the courts and now they are making citizens choose between possible death and the right to vote.
And, there are no consequences for his behavior. Shooting someone on fifth avenue in New York City might be the least of the crimes that he could walk away from.
He has fixed an American election and is now in the process of doing it again . . with no ability for the government to manage this dangerous behavior. He just ignores them.
But, worse, there is no recourse.
Führer Trump. It sounds disquieting. But, it now seems possible.
