In reply to the discussion: For those worried the republicans will not impeach Trump, no matter what. [View all]Zoonart
(14,524 posts)27. I sadly agree.
as to revolution...I think that Americans have been so secure in the power and righteousness of it's democracy that they will not be prepared to revolt.
I think the people are too soft .
"the worst are full of passionate intensity."
William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)
THE SECOND COMING
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: a waste of desert sand;
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Wind shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

Yes, Bernie primary supporter too, hearing the false "rigged primary" meme on DU is pretty tiresome.

As Bernie has said, he lost the primary fair and square. Of course Bernie was on the ballot. He got

I disagree that there won't be huge protests if obstruction is proven by Muellar.

even then they likely won't impeach him, they'll try to convince him to resign.
