I figured we were totally screwed, the Presidency given to a traitor, and nobody had dare better say a thing about it. I think so damned little of just in this country that I am still amazed he was appointed and still half expect only a few people like Manafort to end up getting punished for it. I find it hard to believe that a rich bastard like Trump could be permitted to face consequences.
