While I know it can be tempting to give in to despair, the students in Florida who have taken personal tragedy and alchemized it to activism should give us all hope. We as a nation are far stronger than Trump and his cronies.
An important warning by @anneapplebaum on tribalism, corruption, and cynicism: "As the nepotism and the cronyism of this White House begin to sink in, Americans may not turn against Trump. They may turn against politics, or even democracy, altogether."http://wapo.st/2p6XPgN?tid=ss_tw&utm_term=.b890a2d1de86 …

Say what you will about
@BarackObama but he and his ethics expert@NormEisen ran a tight ship on ethics. The recent memory of their administration will hopefully serve as a touchstoneThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

A group joined together by ideas is a political party. A group joined together behind one person is a cult.

NO! I refuse to believe that.Many in his so called base will, but not the majority of Americans. This Trump travesty has woken us up! Look at what's happening like never before.Besides the enormous protests, the Parkland gun protest has more potential then any other we've seen.

Millions of us are demonstrating, writing, marching, protesting yet those get a one day play, if that.

Trump will get the full brunt of voters ire. We know how he got in and the criminals who aided him.

Anyone that considers turning against Democracy needs to travel to Russia first. See what it feels like to walk down the street with armed soldiers in your midst! Can't leave the tour group, can't talk to visitors, etc. No thanks! Those people just take Trump & go to Russia!

Some Americans, sure; the ones that were only in it to wallow in the crapulent Trump cult of personality, perhaps. Not much danger of the rest of us “turning against democracy”.
