The polarization in our government brought on by the Trump Administration within the past 9 months has unleashed a torrent of anxiety, frustration, and undue hardship upon millions of Americans. The shock and aw antics of Trump and the rest of his cronies have demoralized the many institutions that traditionally kept a level of sanity through-out America.

The dog and pony show of this past Armed Forces forced assembly is arguably one of the most blatant attempts to ramrod the Military to ignore their Constitutional oath. This one gathering alone shows how dangerously close America is to following the play book of Nazi Germany of the 1930′s. We are almost there with the atrocities committed by ICE and other Federal Agents doing Trump’s bidding.

When Ben Franklin was asked what kind of government was created his reply a republic if you can keep it has to be a wakeup call for all Americans.  For the past 9 months the American public has witnessed a stunning transformation from our founding democratic principles to one of authoritieism allowed by Supreme Court rulings and an unhinged Republican led Congress.

The world is faced with serious crisis and the United States needs serious leaders who understand the complexities of how grave the times are. Neither Trump, his cabinet, nor the many MAGA republicans have a clue of not only how to govern effectively but on what is actually needed to address the many concerns facing the American public and the world. 

Today one can’t help reflecting on that one movie Seven Days In May where a General tries to remove a sitting President when we watched Trump’s rambling during Tuesdays Military gathering. Only this time Trump was the one that is deranged and not the Joint Chief of Staff. The movie preservers the democratic principles of our founding.

When we really take a hard look at what is being allowed to occur all across the country where now millions of Americans are seeing their hopes and dreams vanish right before their eyes, we have to realize our democratic republic is in jeopardy. Most of the rest of the world is dumb founded by the sheer audaciousness of a want-a-be dictator. 

The chaos being waged by ICE and now our military being summoned to patrol American streets is a sure sign the United States is losing what our founding fathers envisioned for this nation. The choice is ours do we take back our democratic republic, or do we allow America to sink into oblivion? We had better act fast before it really is too late.
