Our government is now headed by treasonous criminals, bolstered by ideological idiots [View all]

If you can stand to stop and think about it, the only thing left of our once-thriving democracy is the pretense afforded us by our institution's names and the titles assigned to the officers of those institutions. A president who isn't a president. Cabinet positions filled by ideologues hell bent on destroying the very departments they head, departments for which they objectively have absolutely zero qualifications to serve as a gofer, let alone Department head. The Justice Department headed by a perjurer who also happens to be a racist.

And all supported by a Congress whose only operating principle seems to be a constant malicious attack on the general population to reach one end and one end only: the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of the very few.

Yes, it really is that bad. Our country and our democracy are being crippled before our very eyes. Soon, they will be dismantled beyond the point of recovery. And the media sits by, waiting for a pubic hair's worth of positive spin about tRump that they can use to fatuously declare he's Lincoln, Washington and Jefferson all rolled into one.

Sorry about the negativity. Hard to stay positive when every day brings new, normally career-ending revelations about the criminals running the tRump administration, and nothing changes.
