There is no nice way out. There is little evidence that there is any amiability left on the Left at all. Talking and arguing with the Left is doing nothing to change attitudes or considerations of the Left. You might as well argue with rocks. Logic and reason and fairness do not matter to folks who reason purely with their emotions and agendas. All they care about is getting Trump out of office and obtaining complete power. Nothing else matters to them. When we can no longer sit and talk out our differences, then an actual fight becomes the only other option. A civil war. It seems the Left is hell-bent on creating this civil war without understanding the consequences for them when they accomplish it. I hope it never happens, but that is what I’m beginning to believe will happen now. It seems almost inevitable. I think Thomas Jefferson understood this would happen some two centuries ago. The only ones who may be persuaded with logic are the undecided, and more and more they are a minority. Unless some amiability is reinjected into the debate soon, bad things are going to happen. Best prepare for it.

I swear that coming into the 2016 election, I thought America needs a President that’s part Martin Sheen “Still winning,” part Sam Kinison, part J. Jonah Jameson, part Alfred E. Newman and succeeded in the shittiest environments of America, someone who would feather his hair and whip a Bud Light can at the world’s head. By God we got it. I’ve never been so satisfied.
