It’s just….I’m amazed how in such a short time, Trump has utterly torched decades, carefully cultivated decades of American diplomacy that even Bush the Lesser didn’t manage to destroy and was mostly recovered by the Obama presidency. At least Dubya, inept and dangerous as his foreign policy team was, pretended to make paeans to diplomacy and international alliances. Trump has, within a year and a half, all but declared the remaining G6 as his personal Axis of Evil. He’s destabilized our entire international influence in a fucking ant’s fart time on the historical scale.

And so much of our country fucking loves it because ‘America First!!!!!!!!’ Except at this rate, it’s going to be ‘America Last’, because we’re going to fuck ourselves in a race to the bottom just so we can say we flipped off the world for our bestie Russia.

We’re never going to recover from this. Not for decades, even under the best case scenario where the electorate doesn’t give Dems a similar ant’s fart worth of time to fix everything before deciding to give the entire country back to daddy GOP.

We’ll recover. Trump couldn’t do any of this by himself, he has the conservative party’s help.

That party keeps losing seats in special elections.

If the Democrats even take one house in the legislature, a lot of the insanity from Trump comes to a stop. Yes, he’ll scream about Democratic obstruction but he’s doing that now. So what.

Two seats in the Senate and Pence’s thumb can be taken off the tie-breaking scale. Sanders gets a lot of dumping on but he usually votes with the Democrats in the Senate. Ditto with Manchin.
