It brings back memories of an old time. Reds versus experts anyone? Mao would be proud to be vindicated, I think. Trump's Great Leap Forward? At least out of the White House?
Sad is it not? How did we ever get this far down the rabbit hole? Are we still the people capable of getting ourselves back out? To be honest, I'm skeptical ... too many are still tunneling down looking for their own personal Shangri-La.
I trust that the experts will be back when Biden is President.
The experts will be back in government, but that doesn't mean Trump and the Republican base will listen to them. To a great degree, they can continue to live in their fact free alternate reality some call Earth 2. That is why I am so interested in the upcoming battle for the remnants of the Republican Party.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
