"They didn't really draft the Constitution with the expectation that an informed electorate would elect somebody like Trump, a malignant narcissist, convicted felon, rapist, and somebody who was really out to feather his own nest and pursue all these vanity projects."

The Founding Fathers knew all about people like Trump, they read Roman history. They would have used different language to describe him, though.

What they didn't count on was a mass movement of the ignorant and the traitorous.

People who somehow convinced themselves that liberty means living under a tyrannical degenerate.

I've been re-reading my Roman history. Donald Trump is there, more than once, although not in name. He's there sexual and fiscal criminality and all.

We've been dealing with an old, old story. Trump is literally ancient history. Another old story is the failure of societies to deal with bastards like him. Of which we are in great danger of becoming one of that number.

Related to all this, my wife and I have given up on this stupid and cynical piece of Red Texas. We aren't leaving the state, this is our home. But we are going somewhere we can still breathe free.
