Gates Pleads Guilty and Flips

As we meander towards an ending which will be much bumpier than Watergate given the sheer stupidity of the Trump followers and their idiotic leader—I don’t want to get too far ahead of myself from a legal standpoint.

Nixon finally knew when it was time to resign, but Nixon wasn’t a complete empty glove as far as intellect as is Caligula. Nixon knew when to cover his ass and steer the country away from a constitutional crisis this nation hasn’t experienced since the Civil War and the subsequent era of Reconstruction.

One thing we never were allowed as a nation to witness was how if Lincoln hadn’t been assassinated by John Wilkes Booth was how he would have steered the Union through the early phases of Reconstruction with more nuance and polish than the rogue outlaw Andrew Johnson.

I don’t see Trump resigning unless Mueller has enough on Ivanka and his dipshit son-in-law to the point where they could serve time. Perhaps, at that point, he might resign. But always remember, Roy Cohn was Trump’s legal mentor and that Cohn DNA is what will probably drive Trump from a legal strategy standpoint unless he fears his beloved Ivanka could go to jail. This almost has an ancient mythic feel to it, no?

If only we had someone with Lincoln’s wisdom driving this bus for the nation as we drift towards the realities of the New Confederacy, the Deplorables, and a rogue president all in place heading into a perfect storm of sorts.

As I’ve written on here before, I don’t think we lock up 20 million or so Deplorables for their actions in this election or more importantly their continued support of the rogue insurgents. I have no idea what we do with these people other than maybe roping off Montana and creating a state of sort for the Deplorables as we’ve done in Utah for the Mormons. I mean, you’ve still got the shell of Trump University—so maybe that’s something to consider. Make Steven Bannon czar of the Montana Wingnut Republic. Be creative. Use your geopolitical imagination. Think on the edge because this bullshit in place isn’t working.

Anyway, a truly fascinating time for historians. Every day brings a revelation even to places like Oklahoma, Alabama, West Virginia, and other outliers of the New Confederacy where the constitution has been ravaged the past decade by the Koch Brothers, the Mercers, Breitbart, the American Freedom Caucus, and the Citizens United ruling.

You can’t rush history. It will unfold at its own pace and ultimately expose if this country has the character to do the right thing in order to save itself from itself.

Oh, Michael Flynn—what do we do with you, bruh? What a piece of work you are. What would Abe Lincoln do with you? Tough call.
