Trump, The Civil War and Neptunian Delusion

from Metaphysical Correspondent · host Patrice Kamins

Trump's retweeting of the threat of Civil War should he be impeached is the act of a desperate and delusion man.  But those who follow him are equally under the spell.  The Confederacy itself was a mass delusion and real world tragedy that has wounded our nation's soul.  Only a traitor would chose to reignite that fire.
