Some of y'all might not agree with me on this but Trump is the best thing the Dems have going now because they just can't win elections.

Democrats and the left have a bunch politicians that are in bed with Wall Street and corporations. Even Elizabeth Warren has showed herself to be fickle this past year. Warren wouldn't endorse either Clinton nor Sanders until it was politically safe to do so. She didn't comment on Standing Rock until it was politically safe to do so and got blasted for it...remember? That's not real leadership.

If Trump resigns this early in his presidency, Pence will have enough time before the midterms and 2020 to right the ship. Unlike Trump, he is very capable.

As long as he doesn't get us all killed, I would like Trump to stick around for at least another year so that the Republicans won't have a ship to right.

The fight over Confederate memorials is a proxy for this question. Their origin is in the myth-making of the Jim Crow South as symbols of white supremacy over a “redeemed” South and building blocks in a narrative of national innocence meant to unify a divided white polity. In the myth, a figure like Robert E. Lee is transformed from the disgraced general of a brutal effort to expand an empire of bondage to the glorious figure represented in monuments like the one in Charlottesville, a valiant leader in a fight for independence. A man worthy of honor.

That myth-making was the foundation for a new narrative of the United States, one tailored to a white public that could now celebrate the past without guilt or shame, and honor men like Lee without confronting what they actually fought for. In this story, slavery is marginal, black people are incidental, the Confederacy is tragic, and American history is an unbroken line of progress populated by heroes, saints, and demigods. Those massive equestrian statues of Robert E. Lee, Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson, and other Confederate leaders were built to immortalize this story and the racial domination it justified.

Looks like everything is going according to the plan. The sad thing is that "the hermit" is leading the majority of folks head long into the coming slaughter. Amen.
