Now that Donald Trump has revealed his inner fascism, and how far he is prepared to go to flout the rule of law.
Now that a poll commissioned by his beloved Fox News suggests that most Americans believe that he is tearing the country apart.
It might be a good time to ask WHY?
Why in a dangerous time is he trying to divide Americans, instead of trying to unite them? Why is he trying to create the conditions that could lead to a new and bloody civil war?
One that could set the whole of North America on fire...
I spent most of yesterday trying to ignore the U.S. election for a day, by staying off the internet, reducing my exposure to CNN to three minutes at the most etc etc.
So I might have a fighting chance of making it to next Tuesday, without going crazy.
But sadly it just didn't work. Not when Donald Trump's zombies are within striking distance of the presidency, and most of the world is holding its breath...or whatever.
Naturally, the rest of the human race is on the edge of its seat right now. Pop a weather balloon over the Western hemisphere and half the world will pee itself. Small island nations will be flooded.
And not when for a moment I thought that somebody had tried to kill Trump.
Lordy. I must admit that I didn't think Mitt Romney's deep involvement with the Mormon Church should be an issue in the U.S. election campaign.
For compared to all his other liabilities, and character defects, or his many crass sermons in the Temple of the One Percent, it seemed so trivial.
And besides in religion-crazy America, what's one more homophobic, women hating faith, or cult?
But now after watching this video I feel I might have made a big mistake.
