How much of the public trust & treasury has been pissed into the ground by this godless, self absorbed, anti American person, the Donald. Incapable of understanding apparently anything of systemic human & other than human life, he rampages the world w power he stole fr the people
And now, finally, it is certified what was known by all at the beginning of this debacle: Trump broke the law when he stole money from the military to build his idiotic monument to himself.
It needs to be torn down. It is a fraud & ineffective & illegal.

Every day a new reminder just how despicable this wanna-be tyrant is. It takes the voice of a @SteveSchmidtSES to form the invectives required to capture the venality of Trump&Co, and the trail of destruction left in his toxic wake.
Like the scar inflicted on this austere, beautiful land, Trumps lasting mark is the scarring he has inflicted on the nation, its institutions, laws, citizens, values and principles. Like the land, it may heal, but will take a v.long time to be restored.

@EricWolfson @Peggynoonannyc 1/ Not sure we are at the final step yet. If we are, it will be just another interesting acceleration of the pattern of the rise and fall of a dictator (in this case wannaBe). Already he is coming apart. Yet, in the very last moments he can and will do amazing damage.
@EricWolfson @Peggynoonannyc 2/ Demonstrating once again, or maybe Over and Over, that Trump cares not a fig for the country, nor those he calls his "supporters". They are props in his self serving movie he is running "Being Donald Trump".
And when they are no longer useful.. watch what happens next.
@EricWolfson @Peggynoonannyc 3/ There is a pattern. I expect it will be played out. Albeit in its own unique way, in this unique era.
What will break the pattern is if we can, as a country, a society and even civilization, weather the storm & finally integrate and resolve the open wounds that have

It would be good for the country if Trump would in fact step down. He needs to be subject to the prosecutions that await him. If he does resign he likely will try to make a deal to be "pardoned", like Nixon. That would be a huge mistake.

When Tr goes away it is just the ...
beginning of the hard work.
Like enduring a hurricane, or a powerful earthquake immense damage has been inflicted on the country, and even the world. We have lost much. I am sure we don't even know how much...
When the immediate cause subsides we emerge and assess the damage.
And then we try to chart a path of recovery.

The corruption; the social & racial divisions that have been stoked into a conflagration; the loss of respect for the police; the many many errors of policy
all of this will have to be addressed.
I wonder if it will take generations?

We are becoming numb to the overwhelming assault on our once upon a time deeply held and deeply loved values. But the assault is real & it is relentless.

From police brutality, children in cages, to the abuse & dismantling of the Justice dept by Tr/Barr it all warns of a fall.
I suppose no society believes it is possible "that it will, or can, happen here".

In this we deceive ourselves.

It is happening.
We have 1 last fire break in the system.
Congress has failed.
Rule of law has failed and has been overwhelmed by Barr et al.
The S.Court has failed to uphold the values/principles of the separation of powers
The courts themselves are being populated with useful incompetents.
