Also for the file of check on everything: Did Russian hackers flip just enough votes in a couple of states to turn the election for Trump? My impression has been that no polling machines were connected to the internet. However, I have no idea what happens to that data once it leaves the machine, the transportation process to the various count aggregation locations. We were assumed, repeatedly, that process was also not connected to the internet. Would love to hear how that is possible.

The problem is Ron, none of that matters. They have the power now and they will be brutal.

The people in America have been bebopping along in an Ozzie and Harriet world. The kids play video games and eat pizza and get stoned and have a good old life. Girls play with face book.

No one in this country is prepared psychologically for the sort of thing that people in Germany had to face in the 1930s with the brown shirts, etc.

I expect the right wing to use tremendous force to quell the demonstrations that are going to take place from coast-to-coast. Watch how we become increasingly paranoid.

The die is cast for the next four years and we are going to wish George W Bush was back in office.

That is the thesis of what we need to see and what to do. But I see nothing to do. I just talked to a friend who talked about all the demonstrations yada yada, and I pointed out, it doesn't matter now. He and his wife voted for Stein and we had a bit of a falling out over it. But he is calling me now! Too late.

We have no power.
