(2,194 posts)We didn't get this bastard who started a war in Iran to distract from the Epstein Files and then blames the Iranians for a war of choice that he himself started by accident. Actually, it was a long, gradual process that took years to develop and mature / manifest. Involved was a long, slow dumbing down of our educational system - I should know because I worked many years as a substitute teacher, and I would wince and grimace when I saw some of the papers that my students were turning in. Verily, verily, education is the immune system of a democracy, and the secret to keeping the Republic that Benjamin Franklin referred to, and that we inherited from our founding fathers. Also, there was the awesome power of the Boob Tube and that idiotic "reality" TV show that portrayed this dufus a some kind of business and finanical super-genius. Then there was Trump's criminal acceptance of foreign help from Russia in the 2016 election, aided by James Comey's letter re-implicating Hillary Clinton in a scandal right before the election. To top it all off, the American voters, with their abysmal ignorance and lack of proper education, had a terrible case of amnesia about J6 and its true significance, and conveniently forgot about all that and believed the lies and false promises of a convicted felon who would do and say anything to get back into the White House to avoid going to jail. As you can see, there were lots of people, events and circumstances that came together to create this tragic sh*tshow that we're all paying for as a nation right now. I haven't mentioned the half of it, but you get the idea...
