Too much information. Watching Waltz now. It seems Kamala needs him to speak for her. That’s ok. That’s even better.
excellent article
“The political issues we face today go back to the 1990’s and the end of the Cold War”
Not from what I observed first hand (I’m 84). Started with race riots and anti-vietnam war “demonstrations” of the 60’s. Problem was the Union government let them get away with it.
Uncontrolled election fraud with impunity.

I think this guy’s memories are through rose-colored glasses.
I am not so old, but I have to remember back to Patrick Moynihan in the ‘70s to remember politicians trying to solve anything. Fixing government spending became the third rail. No one would touch it from then, on.
Anyone who doesn’t know that Bill Clinton was about getting Hillary into the White House isn’t worth taking seriously. 900 FBI files with the biggest ROI ever seen.
So, I think wrong enough to not be worth the read.
Good article
Free traitors, 1% elitists with no sense of brotherhood for their fellow americans, globohomos, globalists, north american union / nafta supporters, neoCONs who never found a war they didn’t like.... these are the TRAITORS that destroyed our country and our children’s futures... and those are just the Bush-Romney-Mccain-Paul RYNO style REPUBLICANS who sold us out. With “friends” like this, who needs enemies? Yet we still had outright COMMUNISTS on the left that allegedly represented “the other side”. So pick your poison - traitors on the right, or communists on the left. And then Trump came along and just wanted to Make America Great Again... and the Republican traitors and the Democrap communists went insane that anyone would dare put main street americans first.
Great article, thank you.
I subscribe to the Divine Chastisement theory.
Americans largely lost their fear of God.

Anti-war...Gotcha...
Excellent article. I would only add that the rapid expanse of the internet quickly gave way to the surveillance/security state. With the spread of capabilities, it is just naturally assumed that anything that was technically possible to do, was also ethical and constitutional to do. That lead to cancelling, and levels of repression of dissent never seen before.
Throw that in the mix.

The Democrats declared the Republicans were the war party. Actually Democrats were far more likely to start, expand or generally muck up things that led to war.
Democrats abandoned average Americans far before you think. Democrats put the frog on to cook on where they are now a long time ago. The frog was simmering before the 1990s and just now approaching boil.
I was in college during the 1970s and registered as a Democrat. I am lucky that some very bright people educated me about reality in time for me to cast my first vote for President for Reagan.
You made some good points but need to look further back. Much further back.

Great, instructive, essay. I’ve forwarded it to a friend and saved it in my “well said” directory.
The best analysis of how we got here that I have ever seen. Unfortunately, all of the evil things he gas pointed out ARE the fuse that has been lit on the social atomic bomb that is going to blow the nation up. The solution is for a huge number of these evil pepple go be prosecuted and/or outright kicked out of the country. The ONLY way that will happen is a civil war. China has been behind a huge part of this. It is just waiting for a civil war here so it can step in and take over.
I disagree with the above and it set off my virtue signaling detectors. The idea itself is off, man-made global warming is HOAX. Trump needed to call BS on the hoax itself.
