Why does it seem that Republicans are unconcerned about their growing unpopularity for all the evil and rotten things they are doing? Might this be due to the belief that there will not be a midterm election next year? As Trump continues to disempower the constitutional checks and balances of government the possibility of a fair election, or any election at all, has become more than just some paranoid conspiracy dream. Our country is savaged while too much of news media and our Democratic politicians have their heads in the sand. Without an election the great democratic experiment that has been America will be no more.
