...for anyone paying attention-this didn't happen just b/c the mangerine was voted into office. The decline of this empire started much further back...how about the US bringing Nazis here for their technical know-how (after wwii-look it up); how about ronnie ray gun cuts to social welfare. It goes back even further, but that's not a bad place to start.
@FayreLylith This has nothing to do with imported Nazis. It has always been here. This country has always struggled to live up to its ideals. Really the anomaly was from 1933 to 1981 when the country actually made progress towards those ideals. Still the forces that hate that progress has always been here since the beginning and since 1981 have been gaining the upper hand. They intend to take us back well over 100 years in time.
@DaV8or-given that I was providing examples that preceded the mangerine, you seem to have overlooked my point. We're on the same page. Only I don't think the supposed "leadership" of this country really cares abt the original ideals. the us is owned & operated by the likes of musk/zuckerberg/gates/murdock/and ever other 1%er with enough $$ to buy access. Profit is what drives this country now.
@FayreLylith And let's not forget the Nixon administration. A lot of the blueprint for today's GOP was laid out then. See "A plan for getting the GOP on TV".
