You can feel it all around you. The moral fibre, the ideals, the institutions like the FBI are all being sapped of their strength by Trump and his GOP allies.
The average Republican closes his eyes and pretends all is well.
Putin has a big smile on his face and will put the icing on the cake come next November.

(63,221 posts)There is something so surreal about it all. How did things get so bad so fast? How can so many people be ok with the way things are? How can ANYBODY think Donald Trump is anything other than a stupid, vulgar, narcissistic, repulsive, incompetent, racist, raging asshole? It's total insanity!

(58,724 posts)The United States is not being destroyed by Donald Trump. He is incompetent.
The people doing the real damage are Congressional Republicans.

(3,922 posts)The #IPOTUS has installed appellate judges, a SCOTUS, and district judges based on their ideology. These appointments will take decades to overcome and will codify the neo-fascist philosophy of the right wing.

a oozing, festering boil, to be sure, but still just a symptom.
sooner or later he'll go away, but the underlying disease will remain.

Putin's proxy war on the USA is a smashing success thanks to his main asset Trump and his traitor political party.
