A wise man once said, “Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!”
Fact is, this is not over, but but we face a very long, hard slog ahead. We did not degrade to this extent overnight, and the rebuilding will not occur overnight either. I am optimistic, because the sleeping giant appears to be awakening.
Typically, for fascism to take hold requires at least the acquiescence if not the outright cooperation of the military. I believe the military are made of much sterner stuff.
The Germans??? I think is was Japan at Pearl harbor but we attacked the Germans 1st
