A Shameful Day in American History

e US legal system or they are dead.

So I agree with Mike Johnson, this is a shameful day in American history. But it's shameful because the Republican party is now attacking the US legal system, attempting to destroy trust and faith in the judicial system. That is after they have for years now, attacked the election and voting system. These systems are, indeed, flawed, but they are essential to American democracy.

This is how psychopaths function. They gaslight you and make you feel like you're broken or wrong or sick if they don't get their way, if they don't win, and crush their adversary. And the whole world is their adversary until they are cowed into submission as passive authoritarian sheep.

I've written before, in my article, The Far More Dangerous Trump Plague: The Psychopath Trumpdemic, about how perhaps the worst plague that Trump exacerbated and inflicted upon the world was not covid. It's the unleashing of psychopaths and psychopathic behavior, making these despicable, cruel, malignantly narcissistic behaviors acceptable.

Who knows what will come next from MAGAt, Trump world? It is a certainty that Trump will demand that his followers cult members repeat the lies and distortions the Trump campaign generates. I fear that as Trump gets more desperate, he will encourage violence. This has already started and will get worse. Trump has already begun attacking laws and regulations, protecting people, communities and businesses. We can expect that to get worse.

In the early 1930s Sinclair Lewis wrote a prophetic book, It Can't Happen Here, which predicted the behavior of Adolf Hitler and the Nazis. We've already seen the beginnings of this. To simply be in Republican good graces, a person must lie, distort facts and bow down in obesience to Trump.

So, yes, these are shameful times for America, but the shame lies, like rotting vomit, on the right-wing media, Republican leaders and Trump 's magat cult.
