Convicting Trump

[Martin Hash]

President Donald J. Trump was impeached in the U.S. House on trumped-up charges, convicted in civil court of trumped-up charges, and convicted of federal trumped-up charges. It’s easy to predict that future generations will think the long common-usage term “trumped-up charges” was derived from Trump. That’s an entertaining prediction but the actual situation is that at least half the nation no longer believes in the America’s method of governance nor jurisprudence, and without faith in those, the country cannot hold together; some kind of separation between the two sides is inevitable.

Most knowledgeable people recognize this but there is a lot of argument as to who the two sides are: a lot say it’s democrats vs. Republicans, others say it’s urban vs. rural, but the blunt reality is that it’s men vs. women. It’s a historical precedence that all civilizations rise then fall as their society shifts from patriarchy to matriarchy; how long that takes varies but in modern times, where everyone’s vote counts, even noncitizens, it’ll be around 250 years. The only question remaining is how that fall will occur? Watching the transition will be as entertaining as watching Trumped-up charges.
