For months Ive been trying to figure out

if we are living in the series Blacklist or Man in the High Castle? Perhaps this environment is a hybrid of these two.

The Man in the High Castle analogy seems self explanatory; maybe the Blacklist reference is also but the Blacklist idea is revolting and fascinating kind of like the series. Basically I often wonder if these GOP characters in our government aren’t like many characters in Blacklist who do horrible things and some good things reminding us that people are imperfect fatally flawed humans.

Resign or announce they won't seek re-election?

Secondly, Thanks for the reference to The Man in the High Castle. I will start watching tonight! It sounds good.

things just kinda maybe 100 bad things to a half a good thing. I know I’m not making much sense it’s hard to articulate as it is still unfolding. I imagine there are good things that we will never know. Behind the scenes stuff I guess.

Yes, Man in the High Castle is great.
