Weasel-words, spin and outright lies. Yes, you're a Dem slave.

I think America is trying to come to terms with what they know but haven't yet figured out exactly what to do about it. Donald Trump is mentally ill and while adequately fit to play a round of golf, he's not fit to lead the country in a safe, competent, and respectful way. The country is running on auto-pilot and while that is testimony to just how great America is...the problems are certainly piling up and we cannot count on the President not to make even the simplest of problems much worse.

I have a question for you. Try to answer this with some specifics, rather than an ideological conclusion. The question is one of fitness. If you think Trump is unfit for the presidency, what event, in your mind, do you credit as the tipping point where doubt or disagreement suddenly became 'unfit'. For me there are two (one before Trump was elected, and one that came after he was elected. I'll share my answer after your response.

Okay.. time for far fetched ideas..things that would appear impossible....that if you try to reason through.. it becomes not just possible but probable...

In America as opposed to other places...these things are more likely to happen.

I have NO DOUBT.. Trump Republicanism is going to be vanquished..
What happens?.. when one gets vanquished.. is the planet doesn't change but the polarization does. Basic truths don't change.. just the strategy

So what do I think is possible in the next twenty years.. Well first we will elect our first woman President....but here's the deal.. That woman will be a Republican. All That auxiliary BS the Republicans throw out now.... will be gone.... Fascism, hate, misogyny, religious intolerance, nationalism, and the Alt right.
They CAN"T open the door to people of color, immigrants, or socialists.. so that only leave women.. When that door open women are going to take over the Republican Party.I know it's hard to see, but the Republican.. truer base ideology actually fits better with women.

The fires in California, the red-tide in Florida the increased power of hurricanes are just a few of the environmental situations that are making people aware of the urgency of the warming of the planet......Humans ignore the Science at their peril, but it's harder to ignore wildfires and dead fish rotting on the beaches..........

The ignorance of the Republicans in denying this urgent problem is coming increasingly into the forefront of World affairs.......Trump's isolationism will soon become intolerable......the environment doesn't recognize walls, no matter how much razor-wire. New York and Philadelphia are exporting boxcars of Human excrement to Southern States like Alabama....they have been putting it into the ocean for centuries........it's not sustainable......There are too many Humans, yet the Right are still focused on preventing abortion........as if more Human excrement will save the World.......Insanity Prevails.

I have no doubt you are right on this one.

Everything I read indicates that Mango is not happy with the mid-term results.
That's understandable.
For one thing, it makes it more difficult to derail Mueller.
He can fire him, but then the Dems will invite him over to testify in front of a committee.
I imagine it would be televised for all the world to see.
