You know, far be it for me to join the tinfoil hat brigade, but... If you can start applying for dual citizenship, I'd do it. Just in case.
Because I'm starting to think these Republicans you speak of - hell, maybe even some of your Democrats - don't really care for checks and balances. Or the rule of law.
In the only country that's ever used nuclear weapons in anger, that seriously makes me worried.
And maybe that's overreaction. But I'm watching similar things happen - to some degree, at least, though it's far less egregious - in France, in the UK, even here. Concentration of power in the hands of the elite few does not appear, historically, to have favourable consequences for those not part of the elite few.
