I thought to myself "You guys are breaking my government and my country".

And then I replied back to me "Of course they are, that's been their entire point."
From the normal everyday friend, co-worker and acquaintance all the way up to the top the right wing movement has had that as their goal for a while now. They're scared. Scared because we don't accept their way of life anymore. We don't think their religion should control us anymore, we don't think that they should hold the reins of power anymore just because of their color or gender or who their parents were. The fact that more and more of the people think this scares them immensely so much so that they have in fact became breakers. Most of them don't even know they are breakers now. Breakers of our Government and Country. They have put their beliefs ahead of our most basic tenet "we the people" wanting to amend the "we" even since the beginning and taking pains for most of our countries history to do so. Now they are using the government and the health of the country to secure more power and amend that "we" to them even more so. They are breakers and they are breaking us. It wasn't Dump who did this. It was the normal right wing friend, co-worker and acquaintance that did this. They gave him his power and now he is using that to show how the government, our government is useless. To prove that point he is willing to let tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands or even millions die. That is what our right wing normal person will even say when this is over. Its proof for them that the government cant save us only private companies can. For a price of course. The fact that that price is easier to pay for those that have held power for so long, those that want to amend the "we" is not a coincidence. Its the point. Its far past the time for us to realize that they are breakers and to act accordingly.
