Something died today.  I hope it is apathy. 

How many millions billions of words are being written about what happened in the US state capitol today.  How many pixels to show goons in various poses of triumph as they desecrated the symbol of what a free country could should might look like.  One man put a red MAGA hat on a  life size statue  of Gerald Ford and had him holding a trump flag (and not capitalizing trump is not a mistake).  Another amoeba-brain had his feet on Nancy Pelosi's desk.  Would he do that at his mother's house?  Did he have a hard on while he did it?  Coz it's that kind of thinking, isn't it?  It's the reptilian brain staking out territory,  marking it with urine and puffing up the chest to make it appear bigger.

It has nothing, absolutely nothing, to do with saving democracy.  They, like trump, like the Strong Men, probably due to their unadmitted latent homosexual tendencies.  Not that there's anything wrong with being gay.  Coming out as gay shows courage.  These men, who have to be in a gang to support their shaky sense of masculinity, have none.  

But we saw this coming.  trump's been preparing the ground for years.  We've known he's mad, totally selfish and a bully.  We can't be surprised.  Having one mad man in a position of power is one thing, being aided and abetted by self-serving republicans is quite another.  Every one of those republicans who signed on in support of investigating the 'fraudulent' election should be prevented from every sitting their useless arses on government chairs ever again.

At the time I write this Cabinet is debating whether trump should be removed under the 25th amendment.  There should be no debate.  trump has never hidden who he is from us.  Now is the time to face this uncomfortable truth and our own conscience and remove him.
