It was right at the start of her history of the period, written soon after the Revolution was won.
She said that when the Declaration and the first battles happened, the whole concept of Independence and the United States was just a 'done deal' in everyone's mind... by "everyone" I mean the fraction of patriots who made it, especially, and to a lesser extent, the Loyalists, and, last, the gloms who just kind of went along with whatever happened.
Long-term obedience to the Crown was just not ever gonna happen.
Stick a fork in it.
Now Trump's time has come, and he follows naturally from the hippy era, followed by the reform of the Reagan era, and the wholesale corruption of the Clinton era, to the wimp-dumbass-GOPe nation-building and nebulous worthlessness of the Bush era, to now, when we have a denouement where the Uniparty is revealed to all, in its glory, and the deep abiding rot of all branches of Government is exposed.
The time has come for deep, deep reform, and Trump will deliver.
The other side is just having a few gasps of agonal breathing, as their cause and argument dies away.
I had the same vibe on election eve 1980, when the whole country was just sick and fed up with Wimp Carter and the way we were being jerked around by the Iranians.... and much of the rest of the world, for that matter.
This period has the SAME vibe as that agonal gasp of the leisure-suit-wearing, yellow-ribbon-tying Carterian losers.
Go Trump!
Thanks. We’ll know more in November!
