Michael E Vlahos @JHUWorldCrisis   Michael E Vlahos: @JHUWorldCrisis; Johns Hopkins; in re:  Two impeachment trials, the second unfinished as the [allegations] are repeated again and again.  Secessionists /slavers were derided New England as “lawless.”  The South was nationally dominant—but eventually overreached. Will blue now take over or secede?  Not secede. The Republican party of that time gave us populism similar to what MR Trump brought.  In demanding submission, . . .  to bring down the opposition, find a way to use force to make the opposition submit; but that rarely works. The vast majority of Americans are not ready to embrace the woke-ism of blue. Woke-ism is not the dominant [view].
