It hit me as I read that article that one of two things will happen in the next six years:
1. The right keeps winning and the D party is destroyed, to be replaced by a more centrist party of adults.
2. The left starts winning and the United States is destroyed. And I don’t mean a few more decades of “going down a leftist path”. We are at the end of the leftist road. If the D’s in their current state gain control, this country’s demise will be measured in months. Not years and not decades.

Time will tell.

The problem I fear is demographics.

The Millenial generation appears to have bought into Socialism hook, line and sinker. And unlike previous generations they are clinging to those views as they move into their 30's. If something drastic does not happen the slow, steady march of FReepers to the grave will eventually leave them in control of this country.

“Never Trumpers had always assured their former conservative colleagues that Trump would either fail or prove liberal.”

I am not nor have ever been a “never Trumper” but I initially believed that Trump would prove to be far more liberal than he made himself out to be.

I am ecstatic to have been proven wrong.

Let me suggest a #3:

The Left starts winning, but the people in left-controlled districts begin feeling an uncomfortable "this isn't what I voted for" sense of dread. This leads to internal strife, as traditional Democrats fight to take back control of the part, while the Right watches. The Left's winning streak begins to wane, and the Right entrenches itself for the next decade.

-—the United States is destroyed. ——

I would argue that America is already destroyed and that the President is working hard to remake it

The recent hearing debacle is proof of the destruction

What this left vs right fight to the death is all about will determine which of two philisophies or world views will dominate - the enlightenment that has ruled for the past 200 plus years, or postmodernism which has been incubating in the academies and in the past few years has been oozing out in the general society.

It’s like being back in the age of reformation.
