Political Turmoil

Let's all take a lesson from Brexit, shall we?  Before you all head to the polls this November thinking that a loud-mouthed-meglomaniac-narcissist (I refuse to call him by name) can "make America great again" by lobbing cheap-shot insults, you all have another thing coming.  Look at England.  They took the bait and now those who led the Brexit charge by employing similar tactics now realize how complicated and intertwined everything is and their simplified single sentence bumper-sticker slogans will not see them through the turmoil they started.  The captains are jumping ship leaving the English  on board to drown. 

Is the USA perfect?  Of course not.  Nothing is perfect.  It never has been nor will it ever be.  We are sick of financially supporting other countries and their people as well when we have plenty at home who need help.  I understand the emotions that drove the vote for Brexit.  We are human.  We get angry and fed up. 

You say you want a revolution?  Great.  We had one ourselves back in 1776.  I'll leave you with a parting thought.  The revolution is the easy part.  It's what comes after that will be the challenge.  You're fed up with your government.  Great.  But replace it with WHAT?  You better have a clear picture of what comes next and how it will operate. 

Not so easy, is it?????
