While Trump deserves our ire and some jail time, I’m more concerned with what his popularity says about our society.
He’s a gift in some ways: he’s shown the true colors of our neighbors to us. If he makes it to the oval office again, so much would have to have gone wrong in the belt-and-suspenders approach being used right now.
I trust that there’s an end game to disqualifying him because that’s the only way we can buy time while figuring out how to address the ugly xenophobic truth about the future in the US.
I STRONGLY recommend reading Susan Faludi’s “stiffed” if you want a play book on where we’re headed (spoiler: it’s the 90s again, but worse because one of the lost boys could be POTUS again)

Belt-and-suspendera approach? We’re barely using a drawstring to keep our pants up.
I’d be more thankful if there were way less “neighbors” showing their true colors right now.
