General Discussion

This is America Version 2024. It's the politics of aggressive confrontation, what you can't win in elections or the courts, you try to win with intimidation by sociopaths.

Gone are the relatively halcyon past days of the politics of possibility, and far far gone are the days of the extremes finding compromises in the middle. Gone are the days of realizing democracy is supposed to be self-correcting. You make a mistake with a presidential election and that error only gets 4 years of freedom before he/she is stopped.

The Constitution was written to make radical legal change ratjer harder than easier in the hope that a harder process would prove more thoughtful and moderate, suitable to adjustment by later elections of different representatives open to corrective legislative action.

Now it's "Give me EVERYTHING I want, or face impeachment!!!!!!"
