I wonder if there can be a return to civility. I'm not asking for normalcy. I'd settle for decency.

In 2013, former Louisiana GOP governor Bobby Jindal warned the GOP not to become the stupid party, yet here they are -- and their willful ignorance or outright stupidity will tear down the U.S., which is what Alex Jones, Steve Bannon, et al want. So does the donor class, which wants the idiot class to gum up the works so they don't risk their taxes being raised or regulations ("protections") holding back their rapacious, plantation capitalism and fascist ambitions. Last November, I started monthly donations to GOTV to register progressive voters and will be phone/text banking starting late summer. Now's the time to support GOTV efforts, not 6 weeks before November 5th. The imperative for a massive landslide to vote the GOP out of every office possible has never been greater.

As I read this piece I had MSNBC on and the shocking words from Grassley and Rick Scott declining to help citizens until trump takes the throne. I've been paying attention since the mid-fifties, and I never heard anything like that from sitting Senators!?!
