The American Quisling; The American Fifth Column; The American Terrorist

Over the weekend, Donald J. Trump did his best to dismantle the Western Alliance, to destroy democracy, and to wreak havoc on the world economy.

To what end? The truth is, no one knows for sure. But we saw it coming.

It was clear from the outset of his campaign for the presidency, that he was really running for the office of dictator.

His supporters need to open their eyes.

And yet - it is not clear to me that Trump is really driving this train. It is the leadership of the Republican Party who have mounted a prolonged, sustained attack on Democracy.

I'm not sure exactly when the attack began, but I believe it was well underway at the time of Bush v. Gore.

The U.S. Supreme Court did not have to intervene in Florida's recount of the presidential election of 2,000. There was plenty of time left to determine who won.
