I've been wondering lately about something. Do we still need nations? We're so divided as a species that we're all constantly warring with one another over "sovereignty" and "statehood" yet we refuse to be concerned with the issues of others who are not ourselves.

The Trump Presidency: How Did We Get HERE?
I have heard a variety of reasons of how we ended up with the current president. Reasons running the gamut from racism to xenophobia. From sexism to destroying Washington.
