22. Trump has painted himself

into a corner. All his bluster has insured that he must make a move against Chicago. He can deflect toward New Orleans, but that's not what he said. He declared war on Chicago.

How's he gonna get out of this? As soon as he marches troops into Chicago, he will start Civil War 2.0. Does he think that the People in Chicago will not fight back? I think that the Governor there should parlay with the NG commanders and make a deal. In other countries, the police and military have switched sides to beat the tyrant.

Chicago, stock up as much as possible. Everybody, stock up. What if, in his zeal to cow everybody under his thumb, he simply woke the hive up, and everybody everywhere fought back to kick him out of the WH? I don't pretend to know if this is right or wrong. But, he's busy blowing up ships in the Caribbean, moving jets around to threaten other countries, and we need to nip that in the bud. Before he bombs Mexico, Venezuela, and anybody else around there.

Never in my wildest imagination did I ever think that all this would be visited on the US by a demented old man embedded in a twisted cult of ignorant assholes. We have to expel all of them from the government before it is too late.
