Bambi is sadly observing what is unfolding in the United States and recognizing all the ingredients that could dangerously result in a journey toward civil unrest and surely self-destruction, especially without the utmost wisdom of their political leaders in those critical times.
First, once again, without being or having been a Trump supporter, here were the last (wisest) tweets of Mr. Trump before he was cancelled from social media last evening (note that he has been already cancelled from the media a long while ago):
Second, and in contrast, here is the pinned tweet of Ms. Kamala Harris, posted about five hours ago only:
She seems to be creating a false reality once again about those summer riots that were nothing but peaceful.
Indeed, one of Bambi’s American acquaintances has a good friend who began by having sympathy for those so-called “peaceful demonstrators“… well, up until they destroyed his store in the downtown area of his city. Thankfully he was not injured in the process. However, you can understand that he lost his sympathy for those peaceful demonstrators. Bambi is almost certain that he would be deeply sad to read the tweet of Ms. Harris who seems to be rubbing in the face of millions of her fellow citizens the word PEACEFUL once again.
Ms. Harris’ lack of wisdom at this critical time for her country is sad and scary, to say the least. Indeed, instead of uniting her country, she seems to be dividing the Americans even further.
One of the Saints of the Left, Michelle Obama, wants Trump permanently silenced from social media:

Say what you will about Trump, but the last time I checked, at no point did he seek to have his opponents silenced. His favourite method seems to be to make fun of them, sometimes in outrageous and nasty ways, but calls for silencing? I never heard those.
That leaves the question: why? Is that because Trump is such a great guy, who believes in fairness for all? Or is it because Trump knows that such a call, coming from him, would be rightly laughed at – while Michelle Obama knows that, coming from her, it will be received obsequiously, even if (possibly) ignored? What does this say about the real power structures in that country?
Bambi posted your interesting comment Louis. She did so even if she has always liked Ms. Michelle Obama. Today she is disappointed by her, like you. Bambi is against censorship in life. She finds her request odd actually. Fascist-like precisely. Is this the new style of the Democrats? Not very promising, if so.
