12. But Nance, with great respect, trump didn't start the riling up with fear tactics

He just put a prime time entertainment coat of glitter paint on that same message they've been hammering and yammering about to their base since Texas ran low on oil to pump out and they went looking around the world for other sources to pillage.

The republicans won't put a stop to him. He's enacting everything they've ever hoped for. Theyll further their xtian dogma. They'll do their looting of federal and state coffers. They'll hand out lucrative contracts to their friends and family and once the damage is done they get to blame it all on the aberration that is/was the trump presidency. He gives them cover.

Wars cost money so somebody is getting rich. Why stop getting rich? And many, if not most, of those in congress will never have to send their loved ones to fight those wars.

I don't think the GOP sees anything wrong. Well, except for the constant protesting which they will move to curtail through local legislation - in the name of public safety, of all ironies - soon enough.

I worry greatly about my 15 nieces and nephews who are all of draft age.
