Thom Hartmann who is so knowledgeable and was always so optimistic before this year, has worried me with his pessimism. Recently he said "I’ve been feeling something unusual these past few weeks: optimism. Not naïve optimism or the kind that ignores danger, but the real kind that arrives when you see people waking up, standing up, and refusing to bow before a lawless president who believes rules are for suckers and the Constitution is a mere suggestion rather than the foundation of our republic."

I agree. I see MAGA and the GOP falling apart. I see hope.
