If they did that, there'd be nothing but calls for assassination on this site. I use public sites, and cannot be blocked. Trump must be eliminated.

That sounds a lot like William Randolph Hearst, he was just a rich publicist. That's why Orson Welles satirized him in "Citizen Kane".

Why we are ruled by pathological liars by jerryk in history

You clearly have little understanding of history, or you would understand that what I say, is the simple truth. Why do you think they called the 1950's series with Ron Howard "Happy Days". The 1950's were a very good time in America, much better than the present. The US population was less than half what it is now. Lots of opportunity, lots of open space, very little crime. Life expectancy was nearly as high as it is now, almost 70 years of age. We had television, radio, automobiles, airplanes, motion pictures, telephones, inexpensive books and newspapers. We didn't have computers or cell phones, but, who needs them? Library discussion groups and cheap intellectual newsletters took the place of what we're doing now. Now, those no longer exist, of course. The computer industry has marketed them out of existence!

Are you Canadian? I grew up in Canada, myself, but I was born in the US. Gives me a certain perspective. You have to understand, that the bark of Americans is worse than their bite. There are many checks and balances in the US system, and, let's face it, Trump is a basket case, and everyone knows it. Already, the governors of both New York and California are telling him to take a hike, as is the head of the Federal Reserve Bank, and, even, to some extent, the Pentagon. So, I don't think you have to worry too much about violent insurrections. Trump's mainly just irritating.
