    I don’t see the country moving right, I see it rejecting the norms. They want someone in power who tells his opposition “fuck you I do what I want” and breaks all the rules. People want things to change, no matter the cost.

    Democrats moving to the left wouldn’t necessarily solve this problem either. A farther left candidate that still wants to follow all the rules would lose. They want someone who is going to break stuff.

      I don’t see the country doing anything. I see a faction of the elite attempting to seize totalitarian control, loot the government, commit treachery against allies and crash the economy.

        The country did vote, if you recall.

        I’m saying the voters chose Trump because he promised to break the rules, not really because he’s right wing.
