Amazing how prescient our founding fathers - and mothers - were. I am repeatedly floored by some of the warnings giving by the likes of Jefferson, Washington, Adams (John and J.Q.) and Franklin, et al.

This statement by felon liar in chief Trump is not one of confidence. It is a statement of a petty dictator!

That bafoon in the WH has no morality, that's part of the problem. He's all that matters; he knows more than anyone else, according to him. He needs to be impeached and removed, and kick the rest of the trash out that he hired, including Vance.

These are good ideas. However, Congress doesn’t want to do any of them. They just follow

Trump.

without enforcement, some power beyond words, it doesn't matter what Congress does - or SCOTUS - Dominator Donnie has already ignored lotsa congressional and court decisions - and now the military has shown it'll obey illegal orders. All gone. Oh, well! And as for Hitler as an example of how the world overcame Nazism, remember it was outside forces that accomplished that, many other countries against an aggressor. This is an inside coup, elected cretins destroying the rules they were elected to enforce. Clearly they have no concern for the oaths they took; those are merely instruments to get them where they want to be. The US military might is a bit much to hope South America will rally to protect any country there. And don't forget this is financial opportunism as well as a powerplay - which international structure is going to risk its economic success and/or personal wealth to challenge the US nastiness? yeah, well . . . without enforcement you can't make an amoral thug behave as if he has a conscience most people would call civilized.
