I feel the same as you. Posters keep heralding a Trump presidency to restore order, whatever, but this nation is too far gone. Given our love of perversion and godlessness, short of a miracle, there's no way we'll ever be a righteous nation again. And I'm just amazed at how rapidly we're falling.

We were a nation of laws and values just 50 years ago, and look where we are. One can only imagine what the next 50 will bring.

“I sought for the greatness and genius of America in her commodious harbors and her ample rivers-- and it was not there... in her fertile fields and boundless forests-- and it was not there... in her rich mines and her vast world commerce-- and it was not there... in her democratic Congress and matchless Constitution-- and it was not there. Not until I went into the churches of America and heard her pulpits flame with righteousness did I understand the secret of her genius and power. America is great because she is good, and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.”

Around 1840 by Alexis de Tocqueville, author of Democracy in America, a book which was assigned to the entire Republican freshman class of the 104th congress.

We have one candidate who chooses to let a man use the women’s bathroom in his buildings, and another who wants to force everyone to do so. That we are even talking about this is a terrible indicator, this looks a lot like the ‘gay marriage’ garbage looked 15-20 years before it was just imposed like it was really no big deal after all.
