    Don C (and I was happy to see you back here. I hope the women in your life are flourishing as well):

    I don't see enough parallels between present day USA and the Weimar to think what you fear is likely. I take your point about Miller though. It is wise to remember that a President is not a unitary figure and that others act in his/her name and even attempt to pull strings to get their way through the POTUS. I will have to think on that a bit.

    I wish I could say that the current President has the moral fiber to decry any steps in a dictatorial direction. I simply don't see much moral fiber in him at all. I don't think the USA addled enough to allow it, but sadly I don't think he would mind it.


    I voted for the wife in 2016. May have to vote for a Dem in 2020 to leverage Florida harder. I wish they'd run a true fiscal conservative democrat who didn't believe government was the answer to everything. It'd make my lever pull easier.
