We made it thru the Civil War, the First World War, the Second World War, Viet Nam, Reagan, Nixon, Bush and Cheney and Rumsfeld.
There have been times when our governments were completely corrupt. Kansas City, New York and Chicago were completely run by the mob.

But we made it. And we will make it again.

60% of us want to see Trump impeached. That has to be a good sign. People are beginning to see that he is just a horrible, horrible president. I still find it very strange that 30% think he is just the cat's pajamas. That is pretty weird in itself. I guess I just didn't realize that we had so many completely mean spirited people living here. That was an eye opener.

Keep the Faith.
