what worries me about the future...

[Javaman]

besides everything.

at some point, trump will be out, either in four years or eight or (if the repukes grow a spine or we take back the house or the senate) some time with in the next two years, but his "legacy" is now in cement.

what "legacy" you say?

all of his cronies, lapdogs, hanger-ons, sycophants, etc all will have had access, in one form or another to highly classified information and materials.

Think about that.

do you think they will be "company men" and keep their mouths shut after the orange menace is gone?

the U.S. and it's effect upon the world has changed and it will continue to change as long as these half wits are allow to go on the various news shows and general speaking tours blabbing all that they know.

what to do about that? what's to be done?

If have learned one thing over the last 35 years, it's this: not a damn thing will be done.

I don't know why I originally wrote " the last 20 years" I was momentarily on crack. lol

1. Agreed.

We are now in a time of extreme greed.

There will be little left for the poor.

The health system is going to implode.

We need to set up an alternative system if possible.

2. Hopefully he'll be out in no less than 8 years, and hopefully a lot sooner (less than four.)

But God help us if he doesn't want to leave.

3. I do sometimes ponder the idea that the U.S. has entered into it's own "baby Doc"..

of a "president for life" period.

4. Exactly..

especially the babbling of the media when most of this shit is obvious to everyone.

5. It's what I feared, also.

It's like a time-loop back to Reagan. While there are many differences, Reagan was a mean moron surrounded by even meaner handlers. Everything Reagan said (trees cause pollution) was moronic and we on the left were dumbfounded to see him daily elevated into sainthood despite the scandals like Iran-Contra. Our only hope now, re 45, is that he instead takes the Nixon route, & destroys himself.

6. I fear that if he goes down in flames, he will try and take the nation with him. nt
