The country is being run by an unholy cabal of crooks, cranks, and creeps who are using a nasty senile old man as a media distraction.

Google how many members of Trump's cabinet are employees of Fox/Murdoch.

There's nothing stupid about this. It's a traitorous attack on the fundamentals of freedom and democracy - a cynically planned and calculated attempt to replace a modern administrative state with a neo-aristocratic oligarchy that considers itself above any law, accountability, or morality.

Trump himself can barely finish his sentences. I have no doubt what's left of his mind approves of what's being done in his name, but I also have no doubt he has less of a mind than the media are showing.
