At left we see why Lincoln would have done well to let the Confederacy cede from the Union. He could have simply written a letter to Robert E. Lee stating:
Keep your slaves and your land…for now. Wait until you experience the effects of near-zero industrial and military technology development and the civilized world’s refusal to trade with you barbarians. By the end of the 19th Century, a stiff breeze will blow you away. Maybe some future U.S. president will invade you with a troop of Boy Scouts with slingshots, or maybe a handful of banditos will ride up from Mexico.
What former labor secretary Robert Reich says at left is exactly what I believe.
First of all, the idea that the Democratic party has turned into the “radical left” is pure GOP propaganda.
In any case, you either support American democracy, rule of law, truth, and the well-being of the common person, or you don’t. There really is no middle ground.
I can’t see it, if he means a national office. Why? He’s an ardent and outspoken Trump supporter.
Support of Trump wasn’t a political non-starter until his second term, but now the screwworm and the algae in the Reflecting Pool have higher approval ratings.
I thought the cartoon below was clever.
Makes us wonder how much more appetite Americans have for this insanity.
