The socio-political fabric of my country is to take about a major shift; specifically the Republican Party.
Republican moderates will become questionable; Republican conservatives will move into that slot, with the tea party right wing claiming the legitimized “conservative” roll. Taking up the ever-reaching reactionary movement slithers the alternative right.
The alt-right body hails with self-righteous hatred of all that is non-white maleness. This presidential election will normalize these hate groups into the party. Anti-black; anti-Latino; anti-Muslim; anti-Semitic; anti-woman; anti-LGBT; anti-all that does not fit into their KKK-like box of heil White (Superiority) Nationalists.
This bizarre presidential election is over when in January 2017 comes the opening of the dreaded Pandora’s box. Where, indeed, are the old “three monkeys” when we need them most?
Woe is U.S.
