None of the 250-year old checks and balances designed to prevent what has already occurred will be any more effective in restraining these pillagers. Only we can do so. Vote. Vote. Vote.

The thing that stands out to me the most recently is that fact that we know all of this. Everything has been out there in the news. Plus there is just soooo much more that we know about what these terrible people have done and plan to do, but Trump is still a candidate for president and has the kind of support that he does. Really? Is our system so week that such an ignorant cad could just come along and scoop up this kind of blind support that he could actually be re-elected. There isn't much that stuns me these days but that does. Someone who led an attack on police, is still supported by police. Who calls the military "suckers and losers" still has support of military and their families. Someone that clearly despises anyone that isn't a white male, has support of people of color? Someone who abuses and thinks of women as a lower life form, has even one woman voting for him? Someone who cheats, steals, gives to the rich and never pays for services or his taxes, has the support of lower income families? And he promises to do worse next time. Nothing makes sense anymore.
