With each passing week the situation is starting to feel more bleak. Trump is spitting in the eyes of our allies and tearing up international norms, discarding diplomacy in favor of brute force. Threatening to invade European territory and end NATO, for what?
Where are the checks and balances? Who are the adults in the room trying to stop this? Why does it feel like protesting against this regime is screaming into the wind?
At this point we can say with certainty that the US is not going to go back to the way it was before, our standing on the world stage has been utterly destroyed and all that we need now is an illegitimate election, or two, to seal the deal.
It's hard not to be a doomer about the way things are going, all I know is it feels like things are moving in the wrong direction, and way too quickly.
