I am sure the LIBERAL-SOCIALISTS already have a "National Emergency Control" plan ready to implement if needed.

#2 Well, Bill, you and yours entered the Oligarchy in a couple decades ago. You're expressed concern is that the rubes are starting to notice. OK, what's the next Executive ~~Decree~~ Order coming from the White House today to cover their rear for their incompetency and overreach.

#6 So far, every time we were faced with our own undoing, our conscience kicked in and we stepped away from the brink. And that is kind of what I think will happen here, but I don’t know when or how."

Now that he isn’t president anymore, he makes his money pretending to be profound for those foolish enough to pay. I bet he wrinkled his brow to show deep thought when he said the above.

#12 Something before the mid-terms that suspends them, or makes them more vulnerable to fraud. Many in power now are all-in on the now or never nature of or political/cultural divide, and are terrified of what a Red Wave would empower in investigations, prosecutions and punishments.

#13 Since the US of A is a republic this is a good thing.

#17 "I actually think there is a fair chance we could completely lose our constitutional democracy for a couple of decades if we make bad decisions,"
I agree with him entirely but I bet we disagree on which party is responsible for the growing authoritarianism.
