More evidence that we are in for a dramatic decrease (or possibly functional end) of democracy and anything remotely like equitable governance by the federal bureaucracy if Trump is elected president again. We will be seriously screwed if he is. (Sorry to state the obviously obvious.)

I'm beginning to think this is like deciding whether to pull the bandage off slowly or fast. I just don't think the masses are capable of understanding the danger or even care.

HAH! Your first mistake is to think of it as YOUR government!
