The Decline and Fall of the United States of America.

hell no. 99% of the country is fine.

Of course Trump did not cause this. He is the only One standing between us and the Abyss. But your point is well taken. Need more time and info to make that assumption. Next 6 months will be telling in our History.

I don’t know about the decline of the country. We still have a lot of advantages and economic strength relative to other countries.

We are seeing some of the problems that have plagued us since the beginning of our country. We still have racial bias and prejudice particularly in the context of the criminal justice system. This country has to answer those challenges. You can’t expect people to remain silent forever in the face of injustice. We shouldn’t expect that.

America will be here long after we and our child and our grandchildren are dust.

1968 the year that rocked the world

What injustices in particular?

When the rich keep getting richer, and the poor keep getting poorer, and the middle class shrinks, what did you think would happen?

I can only imagine the doom and gloom that was going on in the 60s

What injustices in particular?

You can start generally with how African Americans are often treated by the criminal justice system and police. To be more specific, look at the study of traffic stops in North Carolina that shows controlling for variables that being black means you are more likely to be stopped and have your car search. Look at the study done by the federal sentencing commission showing that when all factors are the same being a black man means you get a longer sentence than a white man. Those are two examples of the systemic problems in this country.
