LOL ... kinda
In general I don't trust humans. Have you seen THE WALKING DEAD? However, I reserve my judgment on government on a case by case basis. I did not trust the Covid healthcare professionals in the Trump administration. They looked like they were about to bust. They look far better now.
I think some folks have already mentioned other examples of reasons why we should be wary of government. It has perhaps morphed into an entity no longer connected to our reality. I suspect that is simply the evolutionary process at work. Whether that is good bad or ugly, I'll let historians ruminate on it.
Could Trump be the proverbial head of the snake? Remove it and the threat disappears? I don't think so. I think we are a nudge or push away from open armed insurrection. Is this what it felt like in 1860????
