The eastern and central Europeans, after decades of brutality they never did ask for, finally overthrew the shackles of oppression, showing one that a hungry mob is an angry mob and will not be bargained with.

So, while one smugifies over the fraud that delivered a senile, old child-sniffer to the Oval Office, consider that every regime eventually goes bust, one way or another and its supporters, if not steam-rolled by the dictatorship they support or having killed themselves over how to use the toilet in these identity-boosting and erasing times, will be distancing themselves from the tumult they created when a reckoning is finally due.
Enjoy the decline.
