OTOH, a lot of ugly emotions that had been tamped down hard for years have surged to the surface in the last year or so, and there are crazies on both the right and the left. So, unfortunately, the tension in this presidency may well erupt into violence. <br /><br />I'll continue to hope and pray that sanity prevails before it comes to that. For this Democrat, impeachment would be far preferable. But that could provoke violent outrage by a third of the population, and they're the ones with the guns. We are one gunshot away from civil war.violetflamedreamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12315064577293374731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30912075.post-71190998919121396822017-08-04T18:08:54.872+01:002017-08-04T18:08:54.872+01:00Thanks Barry for your balanced and clear explanati...Thanks Barry for your balanced and clear explanation of this eclipse. I also appreciate you aren't bringing hysteria into the mix. As an American, I am so fatigued by the Political Theatrics so I have found myself tuning out all 'news updates'. I am especially angry, (and I am assuming I am not alone in this) that our 'elected' officials don't act on the best interests of the electorate that supposedly gave them their jobs; just like pigs feeding at the trough and I am damn tired of it!! Take away health care in a d*ck measuring contest? Let's take away THEIR health care plan and see how they function. It really is a RIDICULOUS position we have found ourselves in and the scary thing is we don't seem to be learning from our mistakes. Trump is just a clown that reflects back who we have become.

So it wouldn't surprise me if he's assassinated. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
