America is spiraling out of control.
From the unprecedented raid on Mar-a-Lago, to the seizure of a congressman’s phone, to our doddering commander-in-chief, who increasingly seems like a man who doesn’t have the sense or stamina to serve out his term.
And now, America is on the edge of another political nightmare.
We are less than 100 days away from the election of a new Congress to run the country – while the de facto leader of the Republican base delights in stoking his supporters’ darkest suspicions under the shadow of a sincerely suspect investigation.
It feels like the country is battling under crashing waves, struggling for a breath, but the rollers keep coming.
Meanwhile, Biden has left town – yet again – for a beach vacation with his son – who has a federal probe looming over his head.
It is true that four years of the Trump presidency, with its independent prosecutors, riots, mobs pulling down statues, the two failed impeachments, and Covid lockdowns – were also disturbingly shambolic.
But that was supposed to be over when America ejected the Orange Man from the White House. It’s not over and it’s getting worse.
