Here's the thing. This country may be broken, as many on here always proclaim, and it is almost certain that our political system is. But broken things can be put back together, and in some cases, like a fractured bone, be made stronger.
Now, who broke things? Well, IMO, just the stress of maintaining our country has been straining the limits for a long time. To avoid dredging up the whole Nixon debacle, and to show that I am not completely a partisan hack, I remember crazy ass dems screaming that Bush at least had prior knowledge that the 9/11 attacks were going to happen (remember all the hullabaloo of how he reacted when told about the situation as he read to elementary kids?), and at worst, was in on the destruction of the WTC by pre-set charges placed by demolition experts. This was all ridiculous and dangerous bullshit, and cracks begin to appear.
Fast forward to all the hateful rhetoric spewed during the Obama years by the Right. The cracks got bigger.
Now, here comes Trump, and I really believe he absolutely shattered the government (metaphorically, at least), and not in a good way, either. That's why I think people came out in record numbers to elect Biden. Now, is Biden going to fix things? Probably not. But, you have to get the fvcking bull out of the china shop (no pun) before you can begin to repair the place. That's why I have said that Biden had one job, and he succeeded...to the point that Trump followers (he knows he got his ass kicked) couldn't wrap their heads around the idea, and have been left yelling about election fraud.
Well, now that bull wants another shot, and it won't be pretty, win or lose. But I do know one thing...I, for one, don't want to let him back in.
