I read, many years ago, that a democracy won’t last 250 years. I don’t remember the exact quote or who said it. It was probably Socrates or Plato or another of those old guys. We Americans were getting ready to celebrate 250 years, but it doesn’t look like we will make it.
The Republicans have given our democracy to an immoral man who is trying to destroy it. Besides tearing apart the government, he is making enemies of our friends and allies. A few weeks ago, we were the greatest nation the world had ever known. Now, we are just a zero. We are vulnerable.
Our country might soon be known as Western Russia and Washington DC could be known as Putinville.
God help us!
