(31,261 posts)But on Germany most likely becoming the leader of the free world, I agree. May in Britain is a poser, I expect Scotland to decide to leave the UK if Brexit happens and Germany and France manage to keep the EU healthy.
You seem to feel that the sky is all dark. I actually feel that we may be on the dawn of a new, long term progressive epoch. Trump will not run over California, Jerry Brown won't let him. As Brown wins battles, states like New York will revolt, as will New Jersey after Christie is gone in two years or less (if Democrats in Jersey don't take the Governor's chair after Christie, they are true posers). Expect a Democrat to win Governor of Kansas after Brownback's gross mismanagement. One of the best things that may have happened for Democrats and the country long term was republicans taking over all of federal government and most states, although there will be short term suffering, republicans in Washington DC and nationwide won't be able to blame their incompetence on Democrats.
