It’s really stressful, watching the two parties in a chess game over who gets to be in control, and the good guys still think they can compromise with the republicans. I think they’re finally starting to understand that the republicans never negotiate in good faith. They will change the rules to suit their needs, every single time. We have all been screaming this at the Democrats for at least 15 years now. I think they’re starting to understand. So maybe that’s a good sign. I’m honestly glad we have guys like Adam Schiff and Jamie Raskin. They’re sharp as a tack, so as long as they’re on our side I have hope that there’s a plan.
But there’s always that worry that certain people don’t understand what’s at stake. I’m not even that worried about Trump, I doubt he has 5 more years left in him. He has poisoned the republican party, and they’re really starting to realize that the truth doesn’t matter. They can say anything and their base will believe it. And they must acquire power at all costs, or there will be no future for them. And even God is on their side. This is a powder keg that is about to erupt into violence, and countries like Russia are fanning the flames. I keep hoping it’ll improve, but it just keeps getting worse. And a lot of the people I care about believe this shit.
And the republican extremists just killed the guy who was steering this shitty little carbon fiber submersible of ours. What could go wrong?
