Good tag line and it is the truth. We are hanging ourselves with the rope we made. America could never fall from a frontal assault. Our only vulnerability was the enemies within and their ability to persuade the weak and stupid.
“As democracy is perfected, the office of the President represents,
more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great
and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s
desire at last and the White House will be occupied by a downright
fool and complete narcissistic moron.”
