Scary. Trump now has defacto control of all three branches of our government. Still, there’s some hope, I think. This shit has eventually got to blow up in the faces of the GOP. How do I know this?
Look. The last time a party tried to shove it’s agenda down the throats of the American people, the country voted that party out of power in both houses of Congress and the White House. Now the other party, the Republicans, are pushing the envelope in jury rigging the Supreme Court far to the fascist right from neutral, while giving tax breaks to the richest and working as hard as possible to profit by speeding up the climate change process. When the Democrats decided to forgo compromise, on Obamacare and later the #NuclearOption, those partisan, strong arm tactics that they applied, led directly to THIS.
Now, I think the next two elections are going to take a heavy toll on that GOP power, but not until it’s too late on so many fronts. 8 years of tit for tat is literally breaking the government, and time has come for the NEXT major swing to be toward the MIDDLE. Please, we must learn to compromise to everyone’s benefit, rather than exploit and extort for the good of profiteering, party loyalty and dominance.
Term limits and a strong third party would be the BEST thing that could happen to this nation. Nothing in our Constitution mandates that only two parties should divide all the power…and it’s high time we form a more perfect union, by learning to work together, embracing change and a better future for ALL Americans, not just the rich, mostly white minority.
There’s more of US than THEM. #Vote4Change
