        Cassandra was right, too. But she ended up in the Elysian Fields, so she had that going' for her.

        Who is this supposed to inform/convince? It's clear our collective ass is in a sling and that an overrepresented 1/4 will never admit it.

        War could come and survivors of the nuclear bombing of Louisville would tell you it was all Obama and HRC's fault.

        The focus on this one sentence is odd. Clearly, many of us did expect disaster, but the preponderance of the piece is very powerful.

        Why odd? They led with that line of thinking. Media has been very slow on this. And, an editorial does little to inform the general public

        To me LA Times sounds a tad disingenuous. "Nothing prepared us." Really?

        The train wreck I expected hasn't yet materialized. We may look back on this period as the calm before the storm.
