The country's just waking up
and Republicans are realizing that they've been "took."
My meme for the day is that under our Constitution, the people are the government. The people we designate to perform certain functions are the "agents of government."
So, when someone proposes to "drown" the government in a bathtub and that person is an agent of government, then that sounds like a treasonable proposal.
Of course, if the government is all of the people, drowning them is not going to be easy. First, they would have to be rendered comatose or, at least, immobilized.
Immobilization, the natural consequence of the fright response to fear, had certainly been achieved until a few people sounded the alarm.
Now the people are shaking off their fears and reasserting control and the agents of government in the White House still haven't caught on.
They will. Once awakened, the people are immune to the soporifics.
