In 1973 We Won The Vietnam War. Millions of Patriots Protested in the Streets and the US Government Eventually Surrendered. Nixon Decided that Murdering Random People for No Reason Was Not That Brilliant an Idea... and so he stopped...

 and NOW... The History of the Vietnam War is Not Taught in School Because... It's "Too Controversial" - HOWEVER... Students may use the Internet to Learn American History... 

In Fact! a Great Idea would be to write a Term Paper on the Subject and Not Only LEARN HISTORY  but also TEACH HISTORY... That way we will not Make the Same Mistake Again! Publish Online!

In 1973 the US Military Stopped Drafting People to Fight Pointless Wars... I Graduated from High School in 1972 and I was Forced to Register for the Draft But WAS NOT CALLED TO SERVE IN THE MILITARY... and Since Then Americans Have Never Been Drafted... an Idiotic Idea That Failed... NOW They Depend on Horrible Economic Conditions to get People to VOLUNTEER  as the Military is the Employer of Last Resort... 

A Brief History of the Vietnam War. 58,000 Americans Died for Nothing... During the 1950s Americans went into a Mad Panic about Communists taking over the world.

We built thousands of Nuclear Missiles and fallout shelters. The US Congress had witch hunts (Joe McCarthy-HUAC) to expose "Commies" who worked in The Hollywood Movie business and blacklisted folksingers that were leading our young people astray with Labor Union Organizing songs. During the height of this hysteria Vice President Richard Nixon went on Television and explained "the Domino Principle" while pointing to a map of Asia. His theory was that one by one those countries over there would turn Commie and soon they would take over Mexico and threaten the American Way of Life. President Eisenhower and Kennedy sent advisors to help the South Vietnamese soldiers fight the North Vietnamese soldiers. Then President Johnson sent even More American Soldiers to fight the Viet Cong. Then President Nixon continued the War for another 5 years before eventually he decided to allow the South Vietnamese to fight their own war and we left. Quickly the South lost and thousands of Boat People fled South Vietnam because they thought they would be killed. As it turned out, The Domino Principle was false. Communism did not take over the world. The entire war was a waste of lives and money.

The main reason we ended the Vietnam War was the huge protest movement against the war. Lead by Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin of the Yippies, The Students for a Democratic Society and The Weatherman staged immense protest marches expressing the desire of the American People to end the war. Eventually the US government got the message.

AMERICA'S BOGUS WARS - Since 1945, The US Military Has Never Defended The Country, Not Even Once. Ever since Victory in Japan, All of Our Wars have been Marketing to Sell Weapons for the Military Industrial Complex.

One time there was a Need to Defend the Country and The Military Failed Completely. Civilians took down the Airplane in Pennsylvania on 9/11/2001. 

Read a Book - My Favorites

Often The USA chooses sides in Someone Else's Civil War, Gets Real Excited about Fighting Communism (or whatEVER) and then We Get Bored, Retreat, Lose and the Total Effect is ZERO. For Example: Vietnam. After 10 years of fighting, we lost and then The Surrounding Countries DID NOT Fall like Dominos... Believe it or not, There was a "Domino Theory" proposed by Vice President Richard Nixon that Stated that, If we lost in Vietnam, the neighboring Countries would become Communist and then the Entire World would GO Commie and we will have Reds Ruling Mexico! And Attacking the USA! I'm not making this up... There were people that really believed this theory... and were willing to send other people's children to die because they were Fighting Communism. Danger Danger! If we don't beat the Reds in Vietnam they will come right up to our border... ABSURD! For those of you that have never heard of Dominos, it's a game with numbered tiles that you could stack in rows so that if you pushed one over, it would hit the next and that one would hit the next... and on and on and on... and they would all fall down. This was popular before Video Games. 

However, Hughes Aircraft, Dow Chemical and other Defense Contractors MADE A FORTUNE... People that sell Bandages, need Bleeding Soldiers to use them up... and then they make a Sale Restocking the Military. Helicopters, Agent Orange, Napalm, Boots, Boats and Food were all wonderful businesses to be in... Soldier Have to Eat... We can sell more MRE if there is an active war than during peacetime... To Quote Country Joe McDonald: "Come on Wall Street Don't Move Slow, Why Man this War's a Go-Go. There is Plenty Good Money to be Made, Supplying the Army with the Tools of the Trade! Just hope and Pray when they Drop the Bomb, They drop it on the Viet Cong..." Defense Contractors kept the war going for a long as possible. Nixon's Campaign Promise was to End the War but he kept it going an extra FOUR Years. If you think about it, We could have Won that War in ONE DAY. A Hydrogen Bomb on Hanoi would have Ended The War. Totally. We knew HOW to WIN since we we Dropped Atomic Bombs on Japan. BUT, we selected to Lose. 

One real effect of that war was: we got a LOT of immigrants. Vietnamese Boat People and Hmong... They came here by the Thousands... and then the Country of Vietnam became a Capitalist Manufacturing Country... Go Figure! They did not like being Commie after all. In general, the refugees were nice people and no one can imagine WHY we would go to war with them...

I Protested Against the War in Vietnam... If MORE People had Protested Earlier, Many American Soldiers Would be Alive Today... LEARN FROM HISTORY

and I protested against Johnson, Nixon and BOTH of the Bushes... Trump did not Killed Masses of Americans IN WAR... Just Destroyed the Environment... Wrecked the Economy... and Appointed an Evil Supreme Court Justice... those things kill slowly over decades. [Rereading this post a couple of years later we have had 402,000 Dead Americans from Trump's Coronavirus - SO FAR - 1/21/2021]

In response to a Facebook Post That Said:

"I was taught to support the president of the U.S. no matter what. I’ve been stuck with some crappy ones and some good ones but I would never protest them or spew hatred."

I Said: "Actually, Protesting Ended the Vietnam War, Ended the Draft and Caused Peace for 15 Years... So, March in the Streets! IT WORKS!" READ MORE:

Remember: REFUSE TO VOLUNTEER FOR THE US MILITARY. Why Die For Corporate Profit? I Interviewed Hundreds of Veterans and They ALL Said It Was A Mistake...

I worked at the Welfare Office in Humboldt County, California and Talked to Thousands of Homeless People applying for Food Stamps, Medi-Cal and General Relief...

I Met Many HOMELESS VETERANS...

It Was Really Eye Opening To Hear Their Tragic Stories...

However... They All Agreed that The US Military Was a Bad Career Choice... PTSD is Very Real and Very Difficult to Help...

For One Thing, Many PTSD Soldiers Refuse any Help

FROM THE MILITARY... Too Many Lies Have Made Veterans Very Suspicious of Anything Told to Them By The Military Industrial Complex... Totally Justified Paranoia...

This included giving psilocybin, the main ingredient in "magic mushrooms," to Concord prison inmates to see if it could reduce recidivism, and to Boston-area divinity students, gathered at BU's Marsh Chapel on Good Friday, to see if it would heighten their religious experience.

DH Said on the Ram Dass Facebook Group: 

Hi all.  Want to say I love you guys. I have been doing so well with my spiritual practice that I’m at the point where I think I got it then I think of my family. Brothers, sister, mom and dad. 

“You think you’re enlightened go visit your family” 

I haven’t seen them in awhile so I’m thinking maybe it’s time they are going to want to get together. Here are a few examples of what I’m dealing with, how do you deal with pain from mental abuse, JEALOUSY of the success of a sibling, PAIN of a brother who killed himself and the anger I hold toward my parents for that. I know we are all on a different trip but man this is where I am stuck. Any words of wisdom to let this go too?

SG Replied: Why do you want to be close to abusive people? Have they healed and grown from that state? I have found that the relationships that are healthy or meant for me, they come naturally. Some have apologized, I have too. The closest people to my heart never left and our different relationships have grown on our separate but intertwined spiritual adventures. But the toxic ones have been let go, and forgiven. I’m still working on fully forgiving. And I know that if the time comes they have healed and are no longer contagiously negative, I will open my arms and heart to them. I think it best not to force anything like that, if it’s giving you trouble or disturbing your peace it probably isn’t something to focus on right now. Good luck! Ramram! ♥️

SM Replied: I’d say, go in knowing and holding with you the spiritual work you’ve done for your soul. Remember that no matter what your families actions and words are, you can not be in control of that. You can only control how you receive and respond to their input/output. Remember to breath and slow your heart rate to keep yourself calm. You can do this. 💜

I Said: Just Go Visit Your Family USING WHATEVER EXCUSE YOU WANT... Because after they are dead, You Can't. I had some EPIC Vacations with my Dad when He was Really Old... We sat on a Park Bench overlooking the Pacific Ocean at the Mouth of the Mad River and - Talked about everything he wanted to talk about before he died - and That was WORTHY.

and Then SG Posted on the Ram Dass Facebook Group: 

I was listening to a recorded talk this morning given by a guy who does remote viewing. The last two minutes of the video are gold and I thought everyone here would receive it very well. Note that this is the closing of a video where he talks about remote viewing and psychic abilities. The last part reminded me of the siddhis or powers that great yogis have. If you approached people on a college campus or major company in the States, most people wouldn't have a clue about these things, and if you explained it to them, they wouldn't believe it's possible. Has anyone here experienced out of body awareness? What was it like if so? 

"If you look in the mirror in the morning and think who you see in that mirror is who you are, you're in for a lot of suffering. My opinion is that who you really are is non-local awareness independent of space and time. You are that awareness that allows you to move your experience, to move your consciousness, to move your perception anywhere in the world independent of space and time. And this was described in great detail as I mentioned by the great Buddhist teacher Padmasambhāva in the 8th century where he said "you have to give up your desire to name things, to grasp onto them and guess what they are", because in the universe, it's really empty of names as you may have noticed. But you can give up your desire to defend your ego and what it says on your business card in conditioned awareness and if you think that you may not be made entirely of meat and potatoes, then you can move your awareness into naked awareness, experience the universe as it is and find a transcendent way to experience the world. My invitation to you is to explore this transcendent place.

I Replied: No... I Have Never Experienced anything Unexplainable... or Magic... No OOBE, No Remote Viewing, Nothing... I Believe Reality Exists and Can Be Sensed Using our Five Senses... My Path is to NOTICE REALITY and Seek Beauty... For Example: I Take a walk Every Day and Photograph Flowers, Trees, Clouds and Birds... The Practice of SEARCHING for Beauty Make Me FIND Beauty More often... I Tried Prayer and Meditation and Chanting and They ALL FAILED... Nothing was Gained... I Find that DOING things is Much Better... Drawing, Playing the Guitar, Swimming in the Ocean, Hiking... Dancing, Hugging a Woman... It's All Good... Eating a Hamburger With Crinkle Cut French Fries... Truly a Blessing...

I predict the GOP will Take the House in 2022 and Impeach Biden. He will not be convicted in the Senate. So They will Impeach Him again... and again... and again... perhaps Eight Times before the 2024 election... Biden Will Not Run in 2024... Gavin Newsom Will Win the 2024 Election... and Camelot will Reign Again... Like JFK and Jackie Kennedy...

and MD Replied on FaceBorg:

Why would there be an impeachment? He has to commit a crime for that. Eight times you do realize how ludicrous that sounds... 

and I Replied:

 I predict that they will "Find" a Bogus Crime to Charge him with... Their entire goal is REVENGE and Lying is Their #1 Tool... Yes, it sound absurd but That's what TrumpNiks® DO! He does not have to Actually Commit a Real Crime in Reality... He only needs to have a Majority of the Representatives VOTE for Impeachment...

The House Accuses a President of a Crime... Their Accusation may be Totally False but... That's What Impeachment Is... An Accusation... The Senate Holds a Trial and Determines Guilt or Innocence... Is the Entire Process Corrupt and a MOCKERY of Justice? Yes It Is...

Maybe they will Impeach Biden Five Times and Impeach Kamala Three Times... Just Make Up Phony Charges and VOTE...and each trial will take about three months... and then there will be the 2024 Election...

I No Longer sell THIS Hat Because Zazzle Asked me to Stop Making Money off of Someone Else's Name... In Fact, I donated all my Royalties to Charity, Just Like Greta asked Us to Do... But... Zazzle Can't Verify That... I Did Sell 21 Hats... and I Did donate over a Hundred Dollars... BUT... Zazzle Deleted This Product - Copyright Infringement... If you want a Hat... Make one Yourself... at Zazzle.com...

Link to All My "Make America Greta Again" Merchandise...

https://www.zazzle.com/store/gregvan/products?ps=24&st=date_created&dp=0&cg=0&vt=&qs=greta

On FaceBorg Someone Asked: So. How does everyone feel about using copyrighted images, symbols, characters, to make art you are going to SELL? Is it wrong? Is it stealing? Does it not matter? Can you get in trouble for it? What are your thoughts...

I replied: I don't do that anymore. I sell on Zazzle and they tell me when I've violated Copyright... and then Those Items are removed from my store. SO... I self censor... This became a big deal with my Embroidered Hat that said "Make America Greta Again" - It was my most popular hat and I DID Donate all Royalties to Charity... Just like Greta asked us all to Do... and then after selling those hats for a Year, Zazzle asked me to remove them from the Marketplace because I was Using a Celebrities name without permission... So I Stopped.

 She asked: so even just the name greta got you in trouble?

I replied: They Thought so... and I'm sure I had many related keywords... climate change, ecology, global warming, earth, environmentalism, activism... It was obvious which Greta I was Talking about... Ironically... I sold a LOT of Hats for the First six months I had them for sale... and by the time Zazzle asked my to stop, sales had already gone to zero a month...

On Zazzle I was Selling Gifts that had a Text Art Smiley "Steal Your Face" Like this: (~);-} and those products that had Keywords like Grateful or Dead were removed from the Marketplace... I think Zazzle's Computers Read the Product description and Keywords list looking for Copyright Infringement... because NO WAY would a Program know what (~);-} Means...

On My Youtube Channel I Posted two songs written by the Eagles. I Sang and Played the Guitar on "Hotel California" and "Witchy Woman" - I was not selling my recordings... I was Just a Fan that Liked their songs and was happy to sing 'em for free on the internet... The Eagles' Lawyers asked me to take them down and threatened to have all my songs deleted if I didn't... So I did... Compare that action with the Grateful Dead Covers Project... In which you and your friends sing their songs... and enter your rendition in a contest... and the best band wins! FUN

She Said: I think that not being able to use a common name like greta is definitely going overboard

I replied: What is strange is that I use OTHER Celebrities names... I sell Buttons that say "Arrest Trump Now!" and that's OK...

Thank You, Joe Biden, for Ending the Pointless War in Afghanistan. Our Soldiers were Wasting their Time fighting a war that cannot be won for people that do not want us there. I feel certain that the Soldiers would rather be home fighting fires that threaten their families and friends... Bring 'em Home and Bring Home the Helicopters too...

and then on FaceBorg SG Said: 

You have to realistically take your quote unquote conspiracy theory and statistically have a look see at how likely or unlikely it might be… which demographics tend to believe in it and which don’t? Are the believers uneducated on average, while the skeptics are university professors? If so, that’s not good. All I’m saying is don’t have conviction in it before fully journalistically investigating what skeptics believe to be evidence of the otherwise.

Don’t blindly believe the authority narrative or vice versa be scientifically, logically & legally open to any reasonable benefit of a doubt. Don’t be so gung ho about yourself that you assume your own opinion supersedes those with more education/experience in the industries or art than you yourself have. Common sense.

SE SAID:
What's all this about eating bugs? I keep seeing posts where people are saying that we're all going to be forced to eat bugs. I assume this is some wild conspiracy, but where did it come from, and what is it all about?

JB Replied:
It is a conspiracy. There's an element of truth to the idea that eating bugs could be coming since they are a very sustainable source of protein and there are already bug restaurants and history of bug recipes around the world. However, like most things labeled sustainable nowadays, it's made into a conspiracy that everyone will be forced to partake and give up everything else

SE SAID:
That is interesting. As for the conspiracy part, it sounds similar to the one where they said the government was coming to take their gas stoves away, when really they're just trying to slowly phase them out over time. I think I heard of one about meat, too...and of course, they've supposedly been coming to take our guns away for decades now. You'd think they would have shown up by now

and I Said:
If Trump Wins we are VERY LIKELY to Experience Global Economic Collapse... and a Loaf of Bread will cost a Hundred Dollars... at that point, eating bugs will be a cost effective plan...

BB Said:I've never heard of anyone forcing anyone else to eat bugs, but I have commonly heard that bugs will be the only source of protein available in the future, and that we will all be using them before long. I have also read (years ago, don't remember the details now) that ground cricket powder is being used as a source in a lot of different things like chocolate bars and we have no idea. And I've always been aware that people eat them in other parts of the world.
I don't know what my mental hangup about it is. I can't bring myself to do it. I love shrimp. Grasshoppers are literally just land shrimp. But for some reason I cannot make myself put one in my mouth.

EF Replied:
I don't find the idea of eating bugs to be particularly appealing, either. I don't see myself doing it unless it truly does become the only option. One of my favorite movies is Soylent Green, and the idea of bugs being the only source of protein in the future sounds very similar to the plot of Soylent Green. I've never heard the thing about ground cricket powder in chocolate bars, and I have a hard time believing it because ingredients are always printed on the packaging, and that seems like something that would be noticed since obviously it would freak a lot of people out.

LP Said:
The world is quickly running out of space and water to keep up w food production to create enough protein to feed the human population. We could easily make more than enough protein now for all humans. Even the starving ones in third world countries. IF we switched our protien sources. Insects are full of protein, easy to grow and require much less space and water and resources than the meat based system we are currently using. Cricket flour could change the world. As goofy as that sounds. I did a research paper on this in college and researched myself out of eating beef. Havent touched it in over 26 years. This was very much a lot of guesswork at the time. But all the guesses involved climate change, human population growth, capitalism....and so far its all come true. So do i feel it could solve a bunch of problems? Yes. Do i think it will come to pass anytime soon? No. Not until the western world is forced to change, and even then we wont until a bunch of people are dead.

and I Said: BLOCK all CrazyTalk® posts... Keep on reporting Trumpanzees to the FaceBorg Brain Police and After a while the algorithm stops posting their insanity... and you won't see any more annoying BUG POSTS.

and then DC said on FaceBorg:

I was raised as Catholic but consider myself agnostic. There is nothing to forgive about walking away from my religion because, if there is a god, he/her understands more than anyone, "For my sake!" "Whatever you do, do not trust man!"
I just wanted to say that SOME of my FB friends who are atheists sound worse than many Christians I've heard. SOME of you mock, belittle and insult Christians for their beliefs and are doing nothing to enlighten anyone. Somehow I mistakenly took all atheists as open-minded and left leaning. Please don't be haters. So you love the color orange and you know that it is made by mixing yellow and red and believers like the color purple but don't have a clue. Who cares? We all arrive at certain points at different times. I've always been open to new perspectives but I think if some Atheists were in charge they'd insist on everyone else believing the same. It doesn't matter if what someone believes is fact or fiction. If you're going to speak out TAKE A STAND AGAINST ORGANIZED RELIGION or IT'S TAXATION, or THE PROTECTION OF THE SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE not other people's personal beliefs. Many of you are only adding more fuel to the fire.

Naomi Klein Network
I’ve noticed an increase in rudeness, hostility, and personal attacks in this group lately, not to mention disinformation and hate-mongering. Also, opinions are being frequently voiced that, once challenged, are met with personal attacks rather than supporting arguments or facts, or verifiable evidence - a clear sign they know they can’t back up what they say. Instead, objections are being met with open personal attacks. Some may be trolls, some not. Neither are to be tolerated here.
Please review our group policies, and if you no longer agree with them, you are free to leave now. I no longer have the time or patience to fence with people, and we reserve the right to remove people from the group without notice who don’t want to abide by our policies.
Thank you.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowback_(intelligence)

Blowback is the unintended consequences and unwanted side-effects of a covert operation. To the civilians suffering the blowback of covert operations, the effect typically manifests itself as "random" acts of political violence without a discernible, direct cause; because the public—in whose name the intelligence agency acted—are unaware of the effected secret attacks that provoked revenge (counter-attack) against them.[1]

Dead Lot:
One man gathers what another man spills... What is your greatest groundscore story?

Philly Spectrum Spring 1992. Walking way far out in the lot to put away a sticker board before going into the show I saw a $20 blowing in the wind. It was really windy and it kept eluding me. Not one to give up easily I followed it, all the way to the edge of the lot where it got caught against a chain-link fence. After picking it up I saw another bill a few feet away, and another and another. All in all I picked up just shy of $200 along that fence!

Rainbow Family of Living Light and Love

Greetings, Cosmic Kin!
In the tapestry of existence, I extend a heartfelt embrace to you, my cosmic family. As the celestial dance of time unfolds, my spirit resonates with the vibrations of anticipation for the unfolding chapters of this cosmic journey.
In the echoes of Vermont 17, a memory etched in the fabric of my soul, I find myself drawn to the rhythm of the universe once more. Nestled in the vibrant heart of Arkansas, I eagerly await the cosmic spectacle that April's eclipse promises to deliver.
A tapestry of tie-dyed dreams and celestial threads, I've invested in Eclipse merch, adorned with kaleidoscopic graphics that mirror the cosmic ballet above. As I prepare for this enchanting event, a question dances in my soul – is there a gathering, a celestial congregation, where kindred spirits converge to witness the cosmic poetry unfold?
In the vast expanse of online realms, I've sought the fellowship of eclipse enthusiasts, yet the cosmic web has eluded my search. Are there tribes converging upon Arkansas, chasing the shadow of the moon as it paints the canvas of the Ozarks with its ephemeral strokes?
If you, fellow celestial wanderers, hold the key to such gatherings, or if your path aligns with the celestial alignment in Arkansas, share your cosmic intentions. A spot in the totality's embrace beckons, a launch point for our Ozark odyssey. Let our energies align under the cosmic canopy as we navigate the path of totality together.
In unity, under the cosmic embrace, let our spirits soar and dance to the celestial rhythms. Here's to the eclipse, the tie-dyed threads that weave us together, and the cosmic gathering that awaits.
In cosmic unity,
Joshua Tree

Dead Lot
Best description ever of when the music plays the band and it required deadheads to power the ship. I forget where I saw it, I think Dead Essays about primarily Dark Stars, but I copied years ago and it so fits! Thoughts?
The psychedelic moments sometimes convey an impression of a lazy but inexorable squeezing, where a thousand rhythms are corralled into a few notes or a minuscule point in time. The music---sometimes notes, sometimes rhythms and combinations of notes--arcs like the lines of force around the poles of a magnet. Or the notes start to sound like a thick electric fluid, syrupy and warped, rather than drum beats or guitar chops. During a jam, perhaps the music sounds like a highly dexterous octopus simultaneously performing many tasks in an impossibly short length of time. At other times it’s sort of a pointillist gyroscopic resonance generated between guitarists in songs such as the “Viola Lee Blues,” or the flamenco windups of “Morning Dew.” In visual terms, the rhythms can sound like the slowdown effect of a wildly spinning ball just before it drops through the hole in a funnel. But whatever its particular manifestation, the Dead’s brand of psychedelic music is always complex, involving millisecond timing and co-ordination, and it invites a sort of attention that other music does not. It is as if listeners find themselves asking, “are they doing what I think they’re doing?” And the answer is, creepily enough, “yes, I think they ARE!”
At the same time, however, there is a second stage of transformation that also takes place. The volume generally comes up, the musicians’ playing becomes more economical, and the music often takes on a visualizable clarity. The sound develops suction, pressure, or friction. The bass and drums begin to pulse rather than beat. Garcia’s guitar licks begin to shoot and glimmer in streams of plasma, pivoting at the millisecond intervals between rhythms with astonishing precision. Weir’s guitar starts tying steel bowties around Garcia’s notes. Notes liquify. Rhythms turn inside out, open like flowers, and invert backwards on themselves. Suddenly the music transforms from the sound of a couple guys banging out a graceful transition from one song to another, into a kind of electromagnetic field of syncopated activity. The music begins to sound like the metaphors we use to discuss quantum mechanics, with shells, fields of energy, and spinning electrons. At this stage, even the notes start to atomize and develop a topography or rhythmic texture---almost becoming “songs” within themselves---exponentially compounding the rhythms of the original song. (As bizarre as it sounds, I suspect that everyone who has heard a lot of the Dead’s music will agree with many of these outlandish claims, and people do not need drugs to hear it.)

My Thoughts On The Subject: Today's ruling by the supreme court regarding the Colorado ballot is an example of "theory vs practice". In theory, Colorado is correct, Trump should be left off the ballot because of Jan. 6th. However, as much as I detest the current Supreme Court, I reluctantly agree with them on this one. In practice, if states were allowed to leave candidates off ballots, in our deeply divided country it would only be a matter of time before all the Red states left all the Democratic candidates off their ballots, and vice versa. Chaos would ensue. Trump is like one of those diseases in which the medicines are so powerful they risk killing the patient. Our founding fathers assumed that the American people would always be rational, so they didn't build in enough safeguards to stop someone like Trump. It never occurred to them that voters would ever allow someone as awful as Trump anywhere near the White House.
