What happens to judicial restraint in the face of obvious presidential bias?   Have we slipped back into a two hundred year old party-free government?   Is freedom an inalienable right, or something to be bought without the currency of patriotism? “Native Americans, enslaved persons and other besieged groups would have had little “good” to say about the era.

 The election is already over. No matter how many times President Trump slips on his own rhetoric those who have a mind to vote for him either have cast that vote or hang on to a singular purpose for wanting another four years of political testosterone. Can he win another term to the surprise of a world on the brink of social and economic chaos? He fits right into the scheme of all things uncertain.
