A Proposal of
Preventive Impeachment
Donald
Trump, president of the United States, alas, is now on the way of descending to
the level of North Korea. So we have America and North Korea vying for
supremacy. What could be more absurd? But the absurd is not necessarily
impossible. Will an ill-tempered Tweet pull us into a war? There is no sign
that Trump’s sidekicks are willing, not to mention able, to try to reign him in.
This unprecedented
situation calls for a similarly novel solution: Preventive Impeachment. Let the sane Republicans, if there are any,
conspire to stop their president from
Tweeting us into a devastating war. Prevention is better than a cure, more especially
when the possible cure is dubious at best.
Addendum for August 12
Today I am ninety-and-a-half years old. I don't celebrate half birthdays of course, but for a variety of reasons I always take note of it.
