Republicans have no bottom, there is no fail-safe, and anything is indeed possible. I expect things will get much, much worse before they begin to get better.

Our Republic can survive having a President like Donald Trump. The framers did a masterful job ensuring no man can destroy our Democracy.

Yes, our Republic can survive a Donald Trump.

However, our Republic can NOT survive such a Presidency that is backed by an equally corrupt, and power-mad party that controls Congress, enables and emboldens and aids the destruction of the pillars of Democracy.

I think our one and only chance to save Democracy is to win back both houses of Congress in November.

Perilous times indeed.
