Americans are a feeble lot! They talk a lot, but do little, or nothing, to stop the atrocities taking place in their name. Nor do they do anything to stop their president stiffing them! That they have allowed Trump & Co to fill their own coffers at their expense, that they have allowed Trump and his chums to take their rights away from them, that they have allowed this administration to drift inexorably toward authoritarianism and dictatorship shows us all in no uncertain terms just how impotent Americans really, truly are. Alas, America is already a lost cause. — © Mark Alexander
