At what point is this country finished?



The DOJ appears to be heading towards working for tRump. They are almost there.
When that is complete it is game over isn't it?

3. I think we are going to end up like

One of those countries with former glory, former progressive vibrant culture. We progressives will have to move underground for awhile.

Remember the Bush years? Seem halcyon now.

This is my most favorable prognosis.

4. Pretty much what was reported

On Rachael last night. Are people not paying attention?

Remember when they looked forward to even Rachel's sliver of DUmpass hope?  Yeah, me too.  :lmao:

36. Every successful nation, or empire, has eventually lost its energy...

maybe that's a good thing, maybe it's not, but it's certainly true.

By having welfare rolls go down, stock market from 18K to 25K+, lower unemployment, lower taxes- I could go on.  Sure sounds like a dying country!

43. It's a good thing if they failed so that they could make way for your turn on top.

Otherwise, it can suck. Especially if you're the one who has to hand off your power to somebody. And even more especially if you don't get to hand it off to somebody basically friendly like the British did.

I don't things will go the way you think they will, were things to fall.  Just sayin'.

8. Continue the resistance.



Even if it costs us our lives.

But also let us all work together so that it does not come to this. We each have a role to play to continue to speak the truth to power.

As in the Lord of The Rings trilogy, the Battle at Helm's Deep and before Minas Tirith, Evil did not prevail. Trump and Congressional Republicans will not prevail in their trying to send this country into darkness.

Oh, for shit's sake.

Earth to DUmmie: They DO work for President Trump.  There is nothing to "head for" but the winnowing of the Deep State (aka draining the swamp) which is starting to really get some momentum.

It's fun to watch them be so invested in ousting Trump.

Do they think Pence will turn into a Democrat or something?

No doubt they believe they will depose the entire cabal all the way down to the first eligible Democrat who will then outlaw the Republican party and institute Universal Basic Income and Medicaid for all by diktat.

I've got the answer for you.

The further this country drifts to the left, the less freedom we have. The less freedom we have, the closer the country comes to being finished.

People are willing to fight and die for freedom. The left offers slavery to the Central Gov't. Under liberalism, the country would be finished, but there will always be people who will fight to stay free. You libs won't like them very much, because they'll be aiming at you.

44. Everything passes. We said the same thing during the Bush years.

Sometime in the next decade or two. We'll be dealing with the new great evil, whoever that is.

And Trump in the rearview mirror will look the same as Nixon and Bush do to us now. Look at the DU archives if you have a few minutes. The fear and angst that we suffered then was no different than it is now. Today, we barely even mention Bush.

And that's when we'll be wondering how we'll will ever get past whatever it is that is going on then.

Skating on thin ice, this one.

No DUmbass. The country will not be over then, no matter what you and your ilk can come up with in your drug addled minds. However, if you and the rest of the people like you somehow get control of this great country? That's when it'll be done and you and your drug addled morons will be guilty of her murder.

53. The Russia thing is the least we have to worry about.

The central issue is that Trump and those around him are gleefully dismantling much of what is good about this country, and installing judges who will be in place for the next 40 years. 

While Russia was undoubtedly involved in the 2016 election, constantly harping on Russia does not allow focus on the real problems I stated above.
