The Demise of the United States Is a Most Improbable Tale

If we still have an organized human civilization here in 50 years, people will still be scratching their heads, wondering how a man who attempted to overthrow the United States federal government a) escaped criminal prosecution and b) was subsequently re-elected to the U.S. presidency.

IMO, the founding fathers did everything they could have conceivably done to prevent the complete breakdown of the nation, but they never considered that the American people could be so stupid.

It wouldn’t surprise me if one of the framers of the Constitution said to another, “If this country falls apart because it elects a criminal lunatic, they will deserve exactly what they got.”
