It seems to me that American political reality has turned into a giant game of wack-a-mole. Everywhere I look, rightwanker extremists are trying to out-crazy each other. Ted Cruz for President. Gag orders for climate scientists in Florida. Cops gunning down unarmed citizens. Lindsey Graham trying single-handedly to wreck the U.N. Senators writing to the Mullahs, trying to kill the Bomb negotiations.
I decided years ago that I wouldn't let myself be beaten down by those bastards on the right.
It's no longer working.
