In an earlier post, Fomenting of U.S. Civil Unrest, I responded to my colleague Gary Tulie’s concern that U.S. politics is so horribly partisan that civil war could break out at any time, especially given the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision to bar Trump from running in 2024 based on his having participated in an insurrection.
I responded that U.S. politics, to an ever increasing degree, is driven by money–huge amounts of it–that are coming in from every angle, and that, without this disharmony, the torrent of contributions would slow to a trickle.  Sorry to sound cynical, but that’s an unappealing idea to most of our media.
Another point to be made here is that almost half the country, i.e., those supporting Trump, are having a great time talking about guns, civil war, the “Biden crime family,” building the wall, white supremacy, “taking America back from the radical left,” and so on.
While people like Gary, i.e., intelligent, sophisticated, and gentle people, abhor violence and hope to see dialog that leads to a national unity, there are tens of millions of American voters who would rather be diagnosed with cancer than they would accept some sort of “woke” middle ground. They’re having the times of their lives.
Another point to be made here is that these people are led my a man who openly commands them to violence.  Trump sent thousands of his thugs to the Capital on January 6, then watched them storm in, in a bloody attempt to stop the certification of a vote that he knew to be free and fair.
These people, and God knows their leader, have the slightest appetite for hand-shaking, consensus, nor any other form of civility. Again, they’ve been looking forward to this all their lives.  

Many Americans Embrace Civil Unrest

Is the Damage Permanent?

Nobody knows.

Without doubt, the damage is profound.  The world has recognized that the United States is being commanded by a madman and has abandoned its place as the leader of the world.

As we look back across history, we see a certain shelf-life to democracies.  It’s easy to believe that we’re in the final days of what became of ancient Greece. It’s also possible, as numerous scholars have asserted, that we’re on the precipice of the sixth extinction.

But it’s entirely possible that the pendulum may start to rebound toward the days of America’s greatness, the time of truth and fairness.

We’ll see.

Are You with President Trump?

A dwindling number of hateful idiots still cling to the ideas at left.

But what was once 77 million is now approximately 45 million, and that number is falling every day, as Trump leads us deeper into corruption, economic ruin, and the revulsion of our former international allies.

Maybe we’ll see a meme like this in a month or so, when the president’s approval rating has declined into the teens, but I doubt it.

Does Multiculturalism Mean Hating One Another?

As an archconservative, Sowell disagrees with me on virtually everything, though I normally can find some merit to his position.

That’s not the case here, where “multiculturalism, diversity, and gender awareness” mean acceptance and tolerance, the precise opposite of “hating each other.”
