Camarillas and Coups

Our current president (no. 45) is a blithering idiot. I think most Americans have come to the conclusion that he is incompetent to perform his job. As much as I, and many others want to say, “Your FIRED!!!” to him, we must ponder carefully what is best for the country.

It is apparent that the president is surrounded by a camarilla that shields us from the worst aspects of his derangement. It is also apparent, despite their feigned loyalty pledges, that they are plotting a palace coup. The 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution provides a legal means for staging such a palace coup. It is a dangerous and poorly written amendment that would likely create more confusion and dysfunction than we have right now.

Honestly, if congressional leadership had any sense of duty, morality, or honor, they would have already started impeachment proceedings. The man is clearly not fit, and congress should be stepping into its constitutional role as an oversight body. They won’t until the leadership in congress changes – hopefully in January.

But who is this camarilla? It is the very people with whom the president has surrounded himself, the president’s cabinet. The vice-president and a majority of that cabinet are extreme right wing Christian fundamentalists. They are the most dangerous group to our democracy, not the lunatic fascists in rural Mississippi. If this camarilla succeeds, they will move quickly to turn our democratic republic into an Iranian style theocracy.

We would be far better off waiting until January. If the Democrats retake even one chamber of congress, proper balance and oversight can be restored. The village idiot can then be safely extracted, the camarilla dispersed, and a caretaker government installed until the next election. It would be the gravest of mistakes to imagine that those people plotting from within the Whitehouse would be on the side of democracy. We must wait just a little longer for our deliverance from evil.
