Donald Trump's America |
Back in late January, one of my favorite writers for The Daily Kos, Dartagnan, published a post highlighting the PBS series Frontline's episode entitled "Trump's American Carnage." It took me a while to sit down and watch it as, like at least 81 million other Americans, I was pretty much burnt out on Donald Trump in any incarnation (watching the show was a massive reminder of how little I miss Trump and how much happier I am now that he is awaiting death in Moron-A-Lago). The show lays out in no uncertain terms exactly how much of a disaster Donald Trump was for America, and shows just how far the Trump cult has fallen down the rabbit hole.
Most important, it is a reminder to those of us who are not riding the fascism train to nowhere to never forget the wreckage that Trump left behind, how quickly it happened, and how close we came to being just another failed experiment in the annals of the governments of nations. And how hard we have to fight to hold onto the House and the Senate in 2022--over 150 republicans refused to validate Joe Biden's election and as the republican party lurches farther and farther toward fascism it is not hard to see a republican controlled Congress overturning the will of American voters in 2024.
And with so much hate as its guiding light, it's not hard to imagine the twenty-first century version of Adolph Hitler being our next President.
