I don't mean to sound and to come off so harsh.

But we have tended to try and let Americans who believe
and vote Republican off the hook through various disclaimers
and excuses on their behalf and rationalizations that
"conservatives" in their millions, upon tens of millions, are
being hoodwinked and misled and misinformed. At what
point do we no longer buy that? At what point do we hold
these people accountable over the damage that is being
wrought. We are past the point where democracy is being
"unknowingly" eroded.

Given the recent Supreme Court rulings, the confrontation
between armed right-wingers and the BLM in Nevada,
the unbelievable harshness of rhetoric from the right....
well - each of us is free to fill in the blanks of where we
head from here.

To me - the dangers to the United States democratic
political system are continuing to ratchet upward.
This is not even remotely where I thought we'd be as a
nation when I voted for Obama when he first ran.
