There is a LOT of money at stake. and It has always been bad... you need to study history some to recall it.
 On a side note, I ain't no spring chicken and I do not believe I have ever seen the level of pure hatred among the general population when people find themselves on separate sides of the political spectrum. No room for deal making or compromise. Only room for Trump hating on the one side and the reverse on the other I suppose.
  I don't remember a time when it was this bad. They used to shoot at each other!
 Burr–Hamilton duel
  
  The Burr–Hamilton duel was fought between prominent American politicians Aaron Burr, the sitting Vice President of the United States, and Alexander Hamilton, the former Secretary of the Treasury, at Weehawken, New Jersey on July 11, 1804.  Wikipedia
   and over similar ideas of race and equality, president Lincoln was shot and killed!
  Abraham Lincoln, the 16th  President of the United States, was  assassinated by well-known stage actor  John Wilkes Booth on April 14, 1865, while attending the play  Our American Cousin at  Ford's Theatre in  Washington, D.C. ... Occurring near the end of the  American Civil War, the assassination was part of a larger conspiracy intended by Booth to revive the  Confederate cause by eliminating the three most important officials of the  United States government. Conspirators  Lewis Powell and  David Herold were assigned to kill  Secretary of State  William H. Seward, and  George Atzerodt was tasked with killing  Vice President  Andrew Johnson. Beyond Lincoln's death the plot failed: Seward was only wounded and Johnson's would-be attacker lost his nerve. After a dramatic initial escape, Booth was killed at the climax of a lengthy manhunt, and several other conspirators were later hanged.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_of_Abraham_Lincoln   I heard president Trump kept some of the Kennedy assignation documents secret... perhaps they point to a government conspiracy that neither party would survive!!  |
