#disillusionment
If somebody comes along who is #charismatic and #honest this country is in real trouble because of the #frustration, #disillusionment, the justified #anger and the absence of any coherent response. What are people supposed to think if someone says βI have got an answer, we have an #enemyβ? There it was the Jews. Here it will be the illegal #immigrants and the blacks. We will be told that white males are a #persecuted minority. We will be told we have to #defend ourselves and the honor of the nation. #Military force will be exalted. People will be beaten up. This could become an overwhelming force. And if it happens it will be more dangerous than Germany. The United States is the world power. Germany was powerful but had more powerful antagonists. I donβt think all this is very far away.
