    It will be cathartic for sure, but it won’t stop the next moron parade from assuming office after. These human dumpster fires are a symptom of a problem, not the problem itself. The issue is that people enjoy these sorts of spectacles and the so-called news organizations are fanning the flames. We need an attitude adjustment in the US.

      Agreed. This seems to hark back to when news pivoted to become entertainment. The advent of the 24 hour news broadcast left lots of hours to fill with “content”. All this bullshit seems to stem from there, creating the “outrage” culture we have now. IMHO, of course.
