Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Re-Focus

 The critical line of attack against Republicans really can't be solely on Trump. It has to be against Congressional Republicans.

Given the tragic circumstances in terms of where power lies in Congress, there is little that Democrats can actually do to stop the orgy of corruption and the general incompetence of the Trump Regency. Congress has every tool at its disposal to stop what he's doing and they won't. In fact, their budget is probably too extreme even for Trump.

Whatever bad outcomes are headed our way belong to them, too.
