"A cascading failure is a failure in a system of interconnected parts in which the failure of a part can trigger the failure of successive parts. Such a failure may happen in many types of systems, including power transmission, computer networking, finance, human bodily systems, and bridges."

Unfortunately, I have witnessed this with a loved one. It is fast and relentless and once it starts there is nothing to be done to stop it.

This is what Donald Trump has brought on himself and the GOP.
