I really don't know if the 20 something to 50 young people realize that the Republic is in serious jeopardy. 40 years of extreme right-wing propaganda as so poisoned the Republican Party that it regards anyone who disagrees with their ridiculous propaganda as un-American, anti-Christian enemies. Trump, is without doubt, the latest and most serious threat. Yes, the Republic has had to contend with serious issues before, however, this does not minimize the challenges that now face us.

I have now problem with laying a large share of the blame on Obama. I read two of his books that seemed to say only one thing of importance. His ridiculous faith that the Republican could be convinced to engage in constructive compromise is to a extent responsible for this situation. He has a serious flaw, in my estimation, that these Fascists bastards can be reasoned with. He was unable to comprehend that they were determined to destroy him regardless of the fatal harm that it did to the nation.

Let us admit one fact as regards the present situation. The country is now controlled by a minority of uneducated, illiterate nincompoops who placed a man into power how only regards them are nothing more than useful idiots. This most importantly includes the Bible Thumping evangelical religious nitwits that have sadly prevailed throughout the history of mankind. This includes every strip of charlatans who have preyed on the ignorant for one sole purpose: to bilk the ridiculous fawning simpletons. The most prevailing problem is religious crap that has poisoned the minds of unsuspecting people of good will. Through out the history the same scenario has been replayed hundreds of times with the same disastrous results.
