    Interesting Goya…
    The thing about good questions is; they demonstrate an actual understanding of the subject.
    20 very good questions above; none of which will be given straight answers.
    What’s to become of a totally broken government of 330 million people?
    The present generally portends future outcomes…

    Democrats have a basic problem. They cannot admit to themselves that they are handmaidens to the rich who are facilitating the transfer of wealth from America’s lower classes to a very few very rich families. They did it by outsourcing jobs to China and shutting down factories, tax cuts, looking the other way as illegal immigrants and refugees replaced working Americans in slaughter houses, not jailing connected criminals, and giving military contractors what they wanted; a restart of the Cold War with Russia. This was all in concert with corporate media propaganda and the failure of western democracies.

    There is just one war party; but it is split into two factions; one crazy and the other in denial. Since facts are in short supply and working Americans are stressed out from lost jobs and losing power; whole sections of America, especially in the South, are regressing back into their tribes and imposing their religious beliefs on everyone else. Theocrat VP Mike Pence is one heartbeat away. The similar reverting back to their fundamental tribal religion did not turn out well for Sunnis in Iraq and Syria. The American Taliban should take heed. The American Constitution and the rule of law is all that protects us from chaos.

    VietnamVet very interesting analysis.

    It is. Just not sure about that ‘rule of law’ bit. Or the Constitution. Ergo, chaos it is.

    Steele decides to testify just as DJT can speak in private to the Queen. Coincidence? Or cutting a deal that will get out what they must, yet protect MI6, British, and probably the queen’s villainy when they shouldn’t?

    The U.S. will devolve, because that’s what it’s supposed to do, legally and culturally, and it must. The U.S. is a union of independent STATES, each with their own cultures and laws, and it was never meant, in fact it is strictly illegal, to run them from the center, trampling each and all, as we have since Lincoln. This is the source of nearly all our problems, the other being federal taxes, funding which then wouldn’t be large, and federal monopoly, influence, and protection which couldn’t exist.

    So look forward to the ‘devolving’ even if you wish to call it ‘tribalism’. Maybe, but it’s regionalism and culturalism, and I don’t see how it can function otherwise. Regions, peoples, and cultures, are why we don’t have a planet government, or at least not yet.
