(4,567 posts)Apparently, Republican followers and those who voted for this idiot truly dont give a shit about our founding principles, the bedrock that made this country the envy of the world. They are blind to the fact that in two short years, we have raced toward Autocracy, and they relish in the fact that dirty water and dirty air is good, that happily giving your money to those who need it the least is sacrosanct,,,,,,blah, blah, blah.
I find it hard to fathom that we have sunk to this point. Putin just passed legislation that makes it a CRIME to criticize him in the open - press, demonstrations, etc. it is basically an open infringement on whatever kind of press or individual freedoms(?) they have in Russia. The Asshole In Chief tells his ill-informed followers to trust that only he will take care of them. Really, how stupid can you be?
Were on a razors edge, and its the stupid people that voted for him and the insipid Republican Party who are 100% to blame (and the fricking electoral college). The acrimony between the parties is only getting worse. We continue to find more and more reason to hate each other. Im not a religious person, but I pray for our country that somehow we can get past this black chapter in our history and back to whatever revised picture of society will be created from the rubble.
