We'll Take It, For Now

  Tonight, Democrat Doug Jones beat Pedophile Roy Moore in the Alabama senate race. It was a close, but satisfying victory. Do not lose sight of the fact that it was so close. The Republican party is wallowing in hate, fear, and lies, and that isn't going to change any time soon.
  Our nation will soon be facing its greatest Constitutional challenge since the Civil War, as the Trump investigations tighten around him. The corrupt Republican party is attacking the investigations and doing all they can to slow the inevitable conclusion. How they react when it comes, and when Trump melts down, will decide the fate of the nation.
  Trump, alone, can not stand against the tide of justice, but, for now, he isn't alone; the GOP and its leadership are with him. I think that it is too soon to say if tonight's election results are a trend. If they are, then even the craven Republican party will eventually abandon him.
  Donald Trump cares only for himself. He will stop at nothing to prevent his own downfall. If it comes to it, he will throw his own children to the lions in order to save his own skin. It is obvious to me that the recent decision to move the American embassy to Jerusalem was calculated to distract from the Russia investigations. It is worse than that, however. I believe that the decision was calculated to increase the odds of terrorist attacks against American targets. Trump cares nothing for human life; he is a man without empathy: a sociopath; his entire career is proof of that. In Trump's mind, dead Americans are merely another tool for his own protection.
  The day will come when the president stands alone against the entire weight of American justice. And eventually, justice will triumph, as it always has. The only question is the cost. Trump already seems unstable. What will he do when finally cornered? Trump still holds the nuclear codes. What price will we have to pay?
