".... a two-tiered educational system that ensures income inequality...."

Who cares about a two-tiered education system, which is in the private sector, when the biggest problem is the two-tiered LEGAL system built-into the federal bureaucracy?

Where the common-man is prosecuted while the political elites are given a free pass, depending on whether they are in the "right" party or not.

Simple English translation: GOP Trump cronies go to jail while democRAT Hillary skates free.

Our side has the vast majority of the territory - and the guns. I’m not worried. The other side can’t even figure out which bathroom to use.

It’s not a war if only one side has guns.

Good article. What the left doesn't realize is how out-gunned they are. They won't have the Army or the police to protect them. If they want a blood bath, it will end badly for them.

I want us to avoid a civil war, but I think that Dem's and the Deep State want a bloody confrontation. I am glad we did not have widespread riots in large urban central cities during a hot summer this year. It could happen, but I hope it doesn't.

It is true that Trump’s behavior is not befitting his office and that a certain decorum and dignity in the White House is not only desirable but essential

I stopped reading at that point. Where was William Smith when the turd was lying through his teeth and making a shambles of the presidency? William Smith can go pound sand.

Decorum and dignity like that of JFK, LBJ, BJ Clinton, Hillary, Zero and Moochelle. Trump has restored some dignity to the White House.

Semper Fi!

BS! Example: Trump loves America and all we stand for. Are the libs falling in behind that? Hell no! Trump’s polices are what make Trump great and his willingness to take them as far as he can with but mostly WITHOUT CONgress.
So who follows his lead? US not the Uniparty’s Government Political (SWAMP) Order! Don’t respect US, then FEAR US:-)

This says it pretty well:

Since the 1960s, America’s leaders have been educated through an immersion in the culturally radical and postmodernist narratives that dominate the curricula of our best universities. It has become a primary goal of higher education to sensitize the future establishment to issues of race, gender, and class, and to raise awareness of global challenges such as climate change. Elite education is no longer designed to hand down a common cultural tradition and to serve as an intergenerational transmission belt for the American and Western heritage. In elite institutions, it is taught instead that America is a great obstacle to the empowerment of oppressed minorities and the central driver of global crises. A core teaching in the humanities and social sciences is that the Western heritage represents a monstrous oppression myth conjured up by dead European white men, which, of course, has its political expression in the identity politics of the Democratic Party.

[ An uneasiness has overtaken the body politic. There is a sense that a terrible clash is about to occur. The establishment’s contempt for Donald Trump, and their machinations to remove him, are validated by the president’s intemperate counterattacks and the glee that his supporters take in his barbs. These two groups do not simply disagree; they consider each other to be illegitimate and unconstitutional outlaws.

It is true that Trump’s behavior is not befitting his office and that a certain decorum and dignity in the White House is not only desirable but essential. Democracy is no different from any other form of government in that the political order is shaped by the character and example of its leaders.

I don’t blame Trump, trump is just the transfer student who just started school , got bullied, and is fighting back.

The GOP establishment is to blame for not fighting back when they could have easily done so and thus for the last 30 years have emboldened the bullies and let this crap escalate.

Better to go down fighting than to be a constant bullied class.

Party leaders and partisans hating each other doesn't mean that the rest of the country is going to follow them into civil war.

Nobody is going to war over Jacques Derrida (who's already been forgotten).
