Of the many things there are to fear these days, I think this tops my list:

59. Why would you fear that more than a civil war? Or more than

a successful Republican takeover of our government without him?

Would the thought of tRump in a cell really make being afraid to be caught even looking at a police officer more acceptable? How about the desperation and poverty of a failed state?

Those are what I fear.

What's happening is far bigger than tRump. He's a product of it. It started long before him, driven by other RW power blocs, most of whom want and need him gone so they can take over. Our nation is at serious at risk of spiraling down into decades of failed governments, civil warring, and serial takeovers and revolutions by competing factions, or eventual iron control by just one.

And again, tRump's not only not the only person working to destabilize our nation so they can take over, he's in their way.
