Trump is just the frontman for a slice of the population. Trump in and of himself is just one person...it is the people he represents that are truly disconcerting.

How we defeat this evil monstrosity that is the authoritarian Republican party is by forging alliances with the genuine old-school Republican patriots and Independents, while mobilizing our base as never before.

We have to simply overwhelm and drown them out.

perhaps it is worth looking back beyond modern history. In the past humans have had tyrannical out of touch rulers. Usually, if they remain in power it foretold the end of a powerful kingdom or society.

I think that is where we are right now. The only trouble is that now we have nuclear weapons, Global Warming, over population among other serious global problems. The shit is about to get real and we have nobody competent in the drivers seat.

It isn't our fault that we live in a failing society. Maybe with work we can turn course and improve our situation but our task is getting harder every day that Cheeto remains in power. And real people are getting hurt every day that he is there. It is a major tragedy for our nation.
