Its so weird if they live on the west coast. Do they not understand state vs Federal? Do they actually think Trump can just dictate?
One of my colleagues said democracy is dead. I replied, well if this is all it took to kill it, it's been dead for a long time. Maybe it just doesn't work?
They said maybe. It's all so absurd. But it's like a car accident. I can't look away.

100%. i dont think their machine has the flexibility to give them the answers or language to even explore the right topics to determine what happened...based on the dialogues ive been privy to.
