My dad was stationed in West Germany with the 4th Armored Division when the Soviets first started sealing off the East.

It gradually went from mild restrictions on travel to the Berlin Wall...and what's happening now sounds perilously like dad's stories.

I live in a border city with Canada. If Trump stages a coup d'etat I'm going to pack up my wife and cat and beg for political asylum in the Dominion of Canada.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is not likely to have a cordial relationship with "President" Trump and may well ask the Governor-General (the Queen's representative in Canada) to put the Canadian military on an alert footing, since Trump is likely to make enemies out of most, if not all, of our current allies.
