I am not optimistic at all.
Pelosi tearing up Trump’s speach behind his back is a sign we are beyond repair when it comes to civility.
I could live with a doofus walking into Senate in shorts and a hoodie but Pelosi’s act and the ‘scum’ attack by a Pres. candidate…no, civility is gone for good.
The FBI altering emails, changing it’s meaning to dupe FISA court judges or the FBI doing the same using a lying dossier that was paid for by a political opponent to smear her rival and no one has been charged to date.
How about paying Twitter millions to filter out references to a laptop of a politician running for office in what could debatebly be the biggest election interference in our nation’s history…but no one is charged.
In fact, 51 retired intelligence officers all labeled it to be Russian disinformation right along with the FBI’s efforts.
This is about a lot more than “civility”. There are major crimes happening at our top levels of government institutions, interfering with our elections and no one is being held accountable.
We’re all guilty of it. We talk each other like crap. I do it too, more often than I should. Really wish we could find more things to agree on, or at least spend more time discussing the things we do agree on. We are (supposed to be) compatriots.
