"Americans are waking up. A grand reckoning awaits us" - Robert Reich

[some_of_us_are_sane]

"Trump has revealed himself in ways his first-term handlers wouldn’t allow – as a sociopath who posts AI cartoons showing himself shitting on millions of Americans who marched against him. A malignant narcissist...We are organizing and mobilizing with a resolve I have not seen in my lifetime.

The US had to come to this point. We couldn’t go on as we were, even under Democratic presidents."

A COGENT AND HOPEFUL ARTICLE IN A TONE THAT WE SORELY NEED RIGHT NOW. A THOUGHTFUL LOOK BACK ON THE OTHER TIMES THIS COUNTRY 'BOILED OVER', THEN RIGHTED ITSELF..

1. The collective insanity meter is off the scale.

Even MAGAts must feel it in their bones.

Looking forward to the boiling over phase and the subsequent corrections.

WITH you, Aussoe105!

3. Sorry I'm not convinced

I really won’t be until November 4.

5. "O ye of little faith...

Like magma from the deepest fissures, American anger is RISING.

Votes will change as the very naive who followed this "Frankenstein president" begin to feel the hurt themselves.

I see it in the news each day.... IT'S COMING.

7. Hope you're right

I’m not very optimistic about the senate. It would be nice to see a 2006 shift where democrats took back both houses.

8. The cracks are beginning

(CERTAINLY behind closed doors) but the Senate is taking the pulse of the nation and "we the people" are becoming more and more APPALLED by this horrible segment of our history.

EMBARRASSED AND ASHAMED. That kind of building negativity WORLDWIDE will not allow this nation to rest easily.

The "TRUMP FANATICS" (25 to 30 percent of us) will not carry these incompetent wannabes behind this INSANE president across the finish line. One by one they will begin to resign or fall out in whatever way they can to save at least al little face.

We're seeing 'ROME' CRUMBLE BEFORE OUR EYES.

4. "Sleeping Giant Awakens"

America's Sleeping Giant roared when police attacked civil rights marchers.

And after tens of thousands of young Americans were killed in Vietnam.

And when Nixon tried to cover up Watergate.

Today it roars once more — at the tyrant in the Oval Office.
