Financial fallout

Donors are backing away from the Republican members that supported overturning the election, which represents half the Republican caucus. McCarthy is in damage control, trying to assure donors that an attempt to deny a duly elected President his office doesn't mean they won't work with him now that the attempt failed.

A difficult balancing act, especially considering that the messenger voted to overturn that election even after a mob sent to murder members of Congress showed up to further that goal.

Who knew that peddling lies and delusion to a radical fringe could have a downside?

Actions have consequences.

The US electorate has short memories which is sometimes good and sometimes bad.

It's likely there are others who thought like I did, that Nixon's administration set the low bar. Yet, I cannot compare Nixon to what we're seeing now. This stuff is just nuts.

Having said the above, I'm proud to be a US citizen. I doubt many countries could handle what we're going through and have their government survive. I only hope those people hurt or killed in this struggle know they will be part of our growth and survival in the future. We owe them that.

Not needing it but I received a stimulus payout and donated it to a organization that provides a place to live for women and children running from abusive partners (read- assholes.).
