General Discussion

But, this kind of like Michelle Obama (who is incredible) thing with the "when they go low we go high thing."

This stuff appeals to US, but not to them and not to the muddle headed middle.

The fact is the America that came before DT was what made DT possible.

Decades of right wing gaslighting that was accepted and normalized.

DT did not HAPPEN to us.

He was possible because the conservative hate machine and republican party chipped away at the decency and integrity and the country's adherence to norms.

All he did was more overtly say and do what the traditional politicians didn't have the stomach after they had whipped the base into a mass of brain eating zombie - DT gave them the brains to eat.

And, radically drove the destruction of our democracy even further.

They hole will be WAY deeper if / when he is gone, than it was when he came down the escalator.

This is nice thought, but we are not going back to what we were.

There are way too many forces at work, too many fires burning hot in too many places.
