    How can they not?

    But, even if they do, this does not bode well for the future of our nation. More and more, they're making inroads into weakening the Constitution.

    Pelosi and company know the Constitution was suspended in 1933 and never restored.
    That's how they can do those things which are illegal and not get into trouble.

    We're turning into a different nation.

    If it continues at this rate--I would not be surprised to see some states try to secede at some point. They would likely fail, but they might try.

    One of two things would happen.
    We'll either be taken over by the UN at that point
    or
    the entire global economy would be destroyed

    Either one could happen.

    But realistically, all empires fall at some point, so thinking we are immune might be a fatal mistake.

    I call that planning ahead, knowing that.
    I've known for years how it will play out. Any civil war on this continent will flush the global economy and global war will follow.
    Am I ready? I guess I'll find that out then.

    We certainly seem to be more divided and more polarized than at anytime in our nation's history, barring the era of the Civil War.

    Can we continue that way without conflict? I don't know. It doesn't seem possible, at least not for an extended period.
