I’m confident we will defeat Trump but I want to defeat Trumpism too and I fear we’ll be fighting that for a long time. I’m equally apprehensive that something worse may rise from the ashes. Just as the Tea Party and Trump rose from the Neo Conservatives and Bush’s declines. The mainstream right is more xenophobic than ever. And you can see it in the people that they nominate for local offices. Some of us probably had local Republicans who sure we didn’t vote for but weren’t outright bigoted bastards.
