A chilling sense of déjà vu.

Let history be our guide to save us from making the same mistakes. Alas, I feel it’s all a little late for that.

Pro-active has become reactive as we try desperately to respond to a regime that has used the democratic process itself to subvert democracy. In many ways bizarre though it may seem, Trump’s rise to power is democracy in action.

He is proof however, if ever it were needed, that a constitution written at the very time when the premise for the American experiment was that the nation should never be ruled by a king is not fit for purpose, when the people choose to elect a tyrant.

This clip courtesy of Johnny Harris should give you a chilling sense of déjà vu.
