Why is this crap surprising? The Republic is corrupted from all angles and it is only a matter of time before it falls. I imagine helicopters 20 years from now - like those during the fall of South Viet Nam - with liberals and Paul Ryan hanging on to ladders while being evacuated to Singapore. A very ancient Hillary Clinton will be presiding there like Queen Victoria serving tea cakes. (In exile, this anti-woman has learned to bake.)
Not too many years ago I would have written off your musings as nuts.
