Imho. Trump has re-proven something fundamental to American character, namely a nation in which "machines and computers, profit motives and property rights" take precedence over people invites something similar to spiritual death.The Right said this was a joke. They were right. It was a joke on them, and it was revealing. The evidence was overwhelming and they know it. And they also know they had to run like the cowards they are by not letting Trump testify. He would have buried himself.
One year to the day before his murder King mused that "the world now demands a maturity of America that we many not be able to achieve."
I suspect he was right about that part too.
