2. I will not accept any version of events where Trump’s popularity and election came out of nowhere. Forces that already existed in our country, not Russia, led to xenophobia, insecurity, disillusionment, disenfranchisement, instability, anger, and fear, which led to Trump.

If we elect a generic Democrat in 2020 it won’t return things to normal. It will return things to sliding-towards-collapse from decades of Republican and Democratic cooperation on hollowing labor protections, enabling monopolies, and selling government functions.

This doesn’t mean I won’t vote for a Democrat! I will, and you should too. But electing a Democratic President gives us an opportunity to reverse course in time to avoid authoritarianism and/or collapse. It will not ensure that we have avoided these.
