It was supposed to be government by non-partisan experts for the benefit of all. Non-partisan, except of course, they had to be Progressives.
This insanity is now exposed for all to see. Progressives are not non-partisan. They do not govern as experts for the benefit of all. They govern for their own benefit and to accumulate and use power.
Many, if not most Progressives now see the United States as an obstacle to be overcome.
They have always seen the Constitution as an obstacle to be overcome.
They have always seen limit on governmental power as obscene.
The real word here is not “Progressive”, but “Regressive” as that better describes the situation. If these so-called “progressives” were really that, we’d be going forward instead of backward as it now exists. President Trump was a a real progressive with respect to how our nation was doing; the exact opposite of what it is now. Where did the idea get started that what is going on now is “progressive”? The word has a completely different meaning. What is going on right now is destroying our nation. How can anyone with even a small spark of honesty & decency call that “Progressive”?
