It's amazing to me how many people are ok with (1) abusing the legal system for political purposes (to get rid of people you don't like and (2) thinking that lying is perfectly ok (if you are trying to get rid of somebody you don't like).
In reading lately about the Nazi period in Germany, there were some people, even top Nazis who kept a perfectly level head and were targeting the period AFTER THE WAR when the tables would turn, and not wallowing in the Nazi insanity.
It seems like the old saying is true: "If you can keep your head when those around you are losing theirs, you will be a man..." (Rudyard Kipling).
The scarcity of people who are maintaining integrity in the face of "Trump Derangement Syndrome" is, to me, pretty frightening and discouraging. But I'm determined not to join them in the mud.
