I coined this phrase a decade ago* -- long before the Rise of Trump -- and it has only gotten more depressingly accurate since.
A house divided against itself cannot stand.
And I believe more strongly than ever that this nation cannot endure, permanently half lobotomized, Fox News meatbags and half free.
I do not expect the nation to be dissolved -- I do not expect the house to fall -- but I do expect it will cease to be divided.
It will become all one thing or all the other.
This November, I'm Voting Blue

Small correction, we're roughly one-forth free, one-forth Fox, and one half completely disengaged by the hypernormalized neoliberal capitalist hellscape of the past forty years. And the Democrats just tossed aside their best chance to engage that half.
Bernie's suspended his campaign, presumably in part to stop any more debacles like Wisconsin.
If you have to choose between voting or your life, can you actually say that election has any democratic legitimacy whatsoever? What would we be saying about any other nation on Earth that imposed that choice on its citizens? Would we call it free?
what the hell are you talking about? more people voted for Biden. Who "imposed" anybody?
I have a criticism over the Wisconsin vote.
Yes, the 5 elite SCOTUS partisanship that in its Judicial activism. Expedited a GOP appeal of a lower court. While the Scouts sits on the Trump release his taxes case.
But, Wisconsin has the mail in ballots/ absentee ballot.
Why everyone in the state did not notify their desire to vote by mail and do that very early is beyond me.
Please, I understand suppression took place.
Wisconsin Gov. needs to use his Governor powers in manners to make the extremist GOP of his state uncomfortable as they use their powers to continue to rule by zealotry.
Before public witch burning commence.
So only Trump can FIX IT.
How many times to you take your car back to the same mechanic after how many times he doesn't get the problem fixed and you keep getting you car back with other problems that did not exist before it went in.
I find the price to have the Chosen one who can only FIX IT , that fee. Is to high a price with no warranty or guarantee.
