"This is so crazy that the people around him aren't saying 'dude, you can't do this.'"

Heard from a protestor in Washington DC, on the news this evening.

But this is what many of us have been asking ourselves since the current US President took power. Why are so many enabling him and kowtowing to his every destructive, autocratic whim?

I am not trolling here -- just genuinely puzzled. As always, I'm looking on from Canada wondering what is going on with our big, powerful, newly threatening neighbour.

Hey, as an American I say to you, don’t get overly concerned about what’s going on here in the states. As a dear Canadian said to me, “ You live in “ The excited states of America!” Yeah, guess she was/ is right. That said, here’s a book , my friend for 35+ years, another Canadian, authored. Fictional but eerily timely especially in light of both world and Canadian happenings. You may have read it. If not I encourage you to read it.
