That is what happened, so it's no surprise to see unity across party lines - those lines really aren't there any more.
I've been saying this. I no longer feel as if there is even ONE political party anymore. AND that it might be the culmination of something I really don't like and that is unfortunate: all our sentiments in the political process have become "who do we DISLIKE THE LEAST". Instead of what it should be: "who do we WANT".
Our whole political system is a wreck. We are in the most dangerous time in American politics since the advent of the American Civil War. At least America united quickly in the wake of the economic meltdown that started the Great Depression, and American politics were quite placid as the Second World War loomed upon us.
We have never been at so great a risk of a political or military coup.
You say now a coup is possible? Then what does it look like? I'm confused. Describe an example of a coup in America right now.

Really? Have we all just become hashtags of our own? Wanna know what I mean? GO TO MY WEBSITE OF 10,000 words. Or, go watch this movie which explains my theory. Or, follow me on twitter. We should just delete this forum.
