Pull yourself up by your bootstraps is a metaphor, at least I think so, for "bend over this barrel for me"

I would not call them broken. They were trained specifically for a purpose by our government. It is absolutely the government's responsibility to retrain them. That's where the failure is. Not in the person themself but in the government retraining them for an environment of not killing people.

Let's be specific. Trump's administration did not participate. The U.S. citizenry was not consulted.

Most dems bring a handshake to a knife-fight.
Elect progressives who bring cannons.

They will learn this when a new Progressive party ousts them.

I'm hoping he will decide to take a tour of the bunker and lock himself inside.

We should all start sending 'keys to the bunker' to POTUS

How possible is it that a sitting U.S. President will use nuclear devices on U.S. States' cities?
How far gone are we that this is a reasonable question to ask?

I also think that we should be at war .. a full-fledged civil war .. with the MAGAts.
Am I that certain that progressives are right and MAGAts are wrong?
No, I'm not.
But I'm certain I know which political system I want me and my loved ones to survive in.

For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country…

Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year.

And America shrugged and moved on.

I think that Drumpf is fascist by action but largely unintentionally. Vance is fascist intentionally. If Vance becomes POTUS and Drumpf cronies support him, he will overreach and the military will have to remove him for cause. If the cronies don't support him, then it all dissolves into infighting.

Yep.

Let's take it National and begin coloring crosswalks in many cities.

You can't "fix" a government that believes that people shouldn't self-govern.
