There will be; on MSNBC, CNN, Saturday Night Live, the late night talk shows, on left-wing twitter. And none of that will make a difference.

Well yeah but there's a constant backlash there anyway. Agree on your final sentence.

Why has consequence become diminished? Trump, for example, can say whatever he likes and even when his statements are quoted back to him he just shrugs it off. Russia seems to be acting without fear of repercussions from the wider world. The Saudis can murder a journalist and shrug it off.

It's not as simple as the attention span of the public. There just doesn't seem to be any power holding the powerful in check.

It all feels a bit like we’re on the brink of darkness. Like some Hollywood dystopian fantasy. It wouldn’t surprise me if we end  up somewhere between hamdmaid’s tale and 1984. If man made natural disasters don’t get us first, that is.

Genuinely wouldn't be surprised to see huge civil unrest in the States. Will the huge numbers of idiot voters really clamour for sensible heads and diplomatic rhetoric when they can vote for a lunatic instead?
