    As of today, a country on course to become one of the first majority-minority superpowers in history is governed, in all three branches of the federal government, by a political movement whose highest aspiration is to slow the inevitable rise of women and non-whites.

        It didn't work out well for South Africa's apartheid regime. This one will fall too.

        Angst of the white man strikes again. Haven't we fallen for this before? Women better wake up and stop voting against their best interests if we want equal representation.

        The GOP have overthrown our government. Amoral and despicable conduct are now the acceptable norm.

        They have no interest in a two-party system, period. Keep an eye on voting integrity 'cause they have no intention on giving up what they have now.

        3) a minority of the population, a white nationalist fundamentalist religious political party funded by billionaire oligarchs from around the world, are pretty close to creating corrupt kleptocratic regime w/the trapping of democracy but firmly rooted in neofascism.

        1) Langston seems appropriate here. What happens to a dream deferred. Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun? Or fester like a sore— And then run? Does it stink like rotten meat?
