Looking like the Pledge of Allegiance might need a rewrite to strike out "Indivisible"!

(995 posts)5. True but many political things seemed unlikely until they happened ...
examples:
the accidental fall of the Berlin Wall
the dissolution of the Soviet Union
a black President
a convicted felon President
a President pardoning over a thousand often violent convicted traitors and rioters
a Supreme Court overturning Roe vs Wade
a Supreme Court giving a "get out of jail" pass to a President
