The Republican Economic Crash
We’re weeks away from falling into an economic crash. Vast swaths of retail are closing or “Going Out of Business!” But because stocks are up, McConnell is blocking any action.
Corruption, duplicity, thievery, and deception.
After Trump Loses
What happens after Trump loses the 2020 election? America will still have almost three months of Trump rule. Trump may be indifferent to America, but he’ll be in a complete panic about himself. We need to plan for that time, too.
Predictions About Trump: Cheating the Election
Dealing with Trump is depressing, but some predictions about Trump are possible. He’s looking at an election he’ll lose. Here are a few of my predictions about the ways he might cheat.
Dealing With Trump: Attacking the Election
Dealing with Trump is hard. When he’s caught lying, he doubles down. And now Trump and the Republicans are attacking the 2020 election they know they’ll lose. If we don’t anticipate what they’ll do, we’ll react too slowly to matter.
Dealing With Trump: Before the Election
We need to deal with Trump between now and the 2020 Presidential election. In 2016, we gave terrible powers to a madman with no boundaries and disdain for the rule of law. Now that he’s losing badly, he’ll do everything possible to stop, corrupt, or suppress the election. We can’t just react; we need to think ahead to beat them.
McConnell Declared the Result of the Trial
President Trump’s Senate trial has started, and Sen. McConnell has already declared the result. Bad start.
Republicans defend the morally indefensible
Will Republicans ever admit the truth? President Donald Trump is morally indefensible. He’s a self-destructive narcissist who compulsively violates laws and norms. Republicans normally attack someone like Trump reflexively. Instead, because he’s one of them, he gets a free pass. Worse, the Republican party, already out of control, follow him off that cliff. They know they’re killing their party for a generation, but they can’t stop.
Who will be the voice of conservatives now that the GOP is disgraced?
Think about the Republican party’s future. Suppose the corrupt Trump administration ends peacefully instead of a Republican coup. The GOP already showed they would burn America down before they’d relinquish power. They bet their future on America falling before the check comes due. What will they do if we’re still a democracy in a year?
