Where we are now | Power Line
A famous American observed on a historic occasion: If we could first know where we are, and whither we are tending, we could better judge what to do, and how to do it. Our current political situation seems to me to lack any helpful precedent to orient us. We ve got Woodrow Wilson, of course, but Wilson s stroke occurred in the course of his second term. Democrats didn t have the temerity to serve him up for another term. I thought it might be useful to offer a few arguable plot points that may bear on where we are now.
Scott Johnson.
Why the Dems can’t tap someone reasonable for a Democrat, such as Mitt Romney, I have no idea. But Scott seems to have his finger on the pulse.
The more I read on twitter/X, the more it seems there really are a number of legit communists and legit fascists churning about on the fringes of our politics. The extremes of one seems to justify the extremes of the other. Much ignorance on both sides, but quite of lot of well informed conviction as well. More on this to come.
