Just one of many, many things Dump has ruined about our country.

For all of our faults as a nation, one thing I was proudest of was that we had always had a peaceful transfer of power. During social upheaval, during economic crisis; hell, during the Civil War; the slavers wanted to have Lincoln assassinated before his inauguration, but they failed.

Now, air superiority.
