7. Because they're not really into the America thing.

They're a criminal class, interested in primal/tribal dominance, sex, and incredible greed.

However -- I would say to you that this past election was their last chance. They chose to turn to a hostile foreign power for help in defeating the evil democracy thing that threatened to leave them floating down the poop creek without a paddle. And now they're going to try to stay up on that shit horse, because if they don't, the oncoming generations are going to make them the villain, which they are.

So -- it's either full-on fascism or a decent future powered by this newfound knowledge of many, many, many similar souls such as you and I that these people are not Americans at all, not in any sense of the word. As soon as you let the enemy in the gates and cut a deal with them for some dream of Stupid Empire, you're screwed. They'll have to kill us all, and I don't think they can do it.

I predict the backlash from this treason (should we survive) will set this country and the human species on a seriously ethical and quite liberal path for generations. Perhaps someday a new generation will forget, or get bored, or just fall asleep -- but I prefer to focus on this particular cycle.

We're going to turn this back and set things right, and Republicans are going to be the supervillains of American history for two hundred years to come. I swear it.
