    As a former Sonar Technician during the Cold War, I’m well aware of thermoclines. I like how you used it as a metaphor in this think piece. I think we sank below the US thermocline in the early morning hours of Nov 5, 2019 with the Dem ballot dump after the vote counts were stopped simultaneously in the six swing states where Trump was ahead. The Globo-Marxists impatience caused them to jump the gun and overplay their hand. Their follow on actions since have aroused those who haven’t been paying attention and just wanted to be left the fuck alone and get on with their lives. Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind.
