I like to think of Trump more as a political Black Hole than anything else.

The Blob crosses the Event Horizon and ceases to exist in this space-time continuum.

JHK, while being a good writer who expounds on many of the aspects of our corrupt federal bureaucrazy, could boil this entire essay down to one point. And that is....

Nuke DC from orbit.

Maybe a rod from god? 1500 pound tungsten bars in orbit, a hundred miles up. Released they hit with the force of a nuclear explosion.

I'm down with the "Rods from God" idea, but AFAIK, it's only our own Fed.Gov that owns these. I could be wrong.

No more police! Then accounts can be settled kinetically. The strongest Warlord shall rule. True freedom for him, his family, and his bravos. Private not public! No gubmint!

Well yeah, that's what I'm always getting at. Said it before, and I'll say it again....there is lawfare, there is law, and then there is...JUSTICE. Preferably of the vigilante sort, speaking for SWIM of course.

Yeah, imagine some scumbag capitalist sold guns to the Indians and those Indians wiped out your family in a raid. No police. What do you do? You enact justice on the scumbag capitalist.
