Before that was Stephen Colbert uncool, profanity-laced barrage against the President.
Even Madonna lost her sh*t and threatened to blow up the White House at the mass women's march earlier this year.
But all this is still only the tip of the iceberg, as liberals "resist" him and extremists even riot and commit acts of violence; the investigators look to impeach him; the mass media lynches him daily; witches try to cast a mass spell on him; and even late night comedians make him into the butt of every joke and asses wisecrack.
No respect anymore.
No genuine dialogue.
No negotiation.
No compromise.
No problem-solving.
No putting the nation first.
The glove are off as tempers and politics are boiling over in Washington, D.C. and all across the nation.
As liberals and conservatives battle it out for the direction of our country.
Some may say that this is what democracy is supposed to do...
But at this extreme, this is how nations self-destruct, not govern!
Who is laughing?
Certainly those that would threaten our way of life: Russia. China. North Korea. Iran. ISIS and Al-Qaeda.
Only sane Americans are crying out for leadership to stop killing each other and instead coalesce--irrespective of right and left--and to move this nation forward stronger in the world--militarily, economically, and socially.
As we continue to beat each other senseless with new revelations of debauchery and corruption every 5 minutes on TV, our politicians are black and blue, their agendas are dead on arrival, their proposals are torn to shreds, their votes are filibustered, the parties are deadlocked, the government nearly shutdown again, and progress is nowhere to be found.
As some states talk of succession, some nutty people out there are advocating for violence to our elected leaders, and others are even calling for civil war, should it come to it.
As many have commented, civility is gone from political discourse, and instead angry and violent discord rules!
This is not a healthy democracy, but a political system being torn apart by extremists and haters.
How do we get the destructive abnormal new normal back to a fruitful normal is normal again?
