Taking Big Steps Backwards

Trump came and Trump will go.  Eventually.  Hopefully sooner rather than later.  Bribing the Ukraine to dig up dirt on a potentially strong Democratic candidate to oppose him in his re-election campaign might sink him.  The Senate has been disgustingly unable to wean themselves away from billionaire supporters in order to actually do their Constitutional duties, but at some point the volume of treasonous activities will be so crushing even they will have to act.  Or there will be an election loss.  Or in 2024 he will be gone.
What remains in his path of destruction is not so much something that he created, but rather something he unleashed, which is the fact that we are (and always have been) deeply divided on things like opportunity, women, race, immigrants, and so much more.  For a while it appeared that progress was being made towards a just and equal society.  Then it was suddenly clear that alot of men and some women think that the white male stranglehold on all that matters should never have changed.  Sigh.  The struggle is very real.
