We the People greatly outnumber the criminals, nazis and fascists in OUR White House. We the People must take back our country. Numbers matter.

Yah, so first off, THANK YOU Mike Brock for presenting well constructed, articulate, commentary on the current state of affairs. Thoughtful and provocative.

Where are We The People? They, along with their so called leaders, wilfully ignore all that history has to teach us. Demagogues from Caesar to Hitler have risen on the same playbook.

And so we’ve arrived at; We The People “have a busy life to get on with – it’s so patently obvious - someone else will sort this out”, or “We believe this will be a brief, perhaps painful, societal correction that has become necessary in what’s manifestly an over permissive society” - or – “We endorsed with our vote, and support these actions, because we believe we’ve been left behind and now this will benefit us”.

Mr. Brock’s arguments do a brilliant job in laying bare the glaring issues en-train; No viable political opposition to provide checks & balances. Instead, we have adversarial opponents, treating each other as enemies to be thwarted, rather than seeking to benefit the electorate. And, we have arrived at the construct of a precarious world, which sorely requires Statesmen to undo the Gordian knots we’ve effected - but all we have are self aggrandising demagogues posing as leaders.

What do you think we should do now???
