Are we the frogs in the slowing boiling pot?

No one knows what to make of Trump at this point, but it appears that most folks are just going about their lives, trying to find some logic in the world, and even looking for hope for the future.

The media has no idea how to handle all this, continuing to cling to accepted norms and traditions while refusing to confront what is right in front of us all: a crazed leader and a sycophantic government.

That video from a few months ago reminding the military that they are required to refuse illegal orders, such as orders to commit warcrimes. 

Our deranged king appears to have threatened Iran, a nation of over 90 million, with nuclear annihilation if they don't do... well, SOMETHING, by tonight. He never explicity says, well, much of anything, but when he treatens to destroy an entire civilization UNLESS... 

I mean, that's what he said. I guess the media just reports and it's up to the American Public to decide. 

Are there no Republican leaders who can urge our demented leader to back off a bit? Our system basically shuts out the opposition from putting a stop to a madman and a power-hungry collection of fanatics, leaving only the Republians with any power at all.

And the House and Senate have gone home... to restock bomb shelters or take one final trip to Disney World before it all crashes down? 

Could be a good week to rewatch Dr. Strangelove, and we're all Slim Pickens riding the nuclear bomb toward the target. Yippee!
