There seems to be a cloud of melencoloany spreading across the nation. I suppose that would be "normal" under the current situation. It feels like a combination of denial and dread. I think everyone is trying to remain sane by telling themselves that he really can't get done what he thinks he can. I also think the shock wave of the events that will unfold will have a dramatic affect upon this melencoloany. I don't think he can get done what he thinks he can either, but I also think he can do a lot of damage in the process. The question is, I suppose, how far will he be able to go before he starts to push against powers that he shouldn't have pushed against. I have no idea, but I know that from a businessman's perspective, if he starts trucks rolling and pulling people out of their houses, the impact on the economy is going to be disastrous. How long do you think that song is going to play? This nation is a lot stronger than any of us probably realizes right now. We've been through a lot recently, but we always seem to bend and not break.
