Disgusting. Maddening.  So, so incredibly sad.  

FBI agents beating up US Senators 

All within 48 hours.

This just a taste of what the next 4-8 years will be.

To everyone on this forum who have common decency and sense, I hope that you and your loved ones will be safe. 

It's going to be dangerous.

There has been much comment in the last few decades about radicalisation, initially from 'outside' any particular country.

But - hasn't the track Drumpf has been following since his 'golden staircase' descent also created and promulgated the same 'us versus them' mentality ? - which only leads to greater division, and further radicalisation.

That is the thing he's BEST at - he's an arse at being a businessman, a shit husband, a poor father, a convicted felon - but he still somehow managed to cling to a media profile of competency that enabled him - finding a foil, a supposed enemy, anyone who now opposes him - it's all THEIR fault. It's Biden, it's immigrants, climate change is fake. It's never ME, it's THEM. I'll call THEM all sorts of stupid names instead of having an idea to do anything differently. Follow me and I'll get rid of THEM. And I'll pass it off as being 'strong'

Except - THEM is in reality all of US. We are all just different versions of US.
