Apocalypse Now?
Send in the locusts
This morning I’m trying to understand the roots of the extreme division among us here in the US. Yes, it’s driven by a political strategy, but despite that strategy being extremely destructive, a huge number of Americans have embraced it. But I’m seeing a pattern.
There’s a hot war in the Middle East. The major ports on the US East Coast are shut down by a dockworker union strike. The entire southeastern US is reeling from a super storm that wiped out entire towns deep inland. The West Coast is experiencing 100 degree plus temps, in October.
I’m sure there’s more but that is what the news tells me this morning. Oh yeah, the DOJ Special Prosecutor released a damning 165 page synopsis of the case against former President Trump detailing his efforts to lead a violent takeover of the federal government.
The Republican candidate for Vice President lied at least nineteen times during a nationally televised debate and then cried foul when the moderators corrected just one of those lies. Not fair, he said. His running mate, the same indicted felon ex-president, said about 100 crazy things, demonstrating that he is almost certainly experiencing either extreme paranoia or dementia or both, yet he is in a tie for re-election just 30 days from now.
