I remember asking on reddit in 2015 "what happens if the executive branch and congress ignore the courts?" And I should've had it the other way around. I wish more white people had listened over the past 40 years!

Trump was never as big a threat as Trump 2.0 will be - and he may well be the last president we have. I have never wanted to be a person who wished harm on anyone, so I think about how nice it would be if he passed away peacefully in his bed.
But that won't save us.
I've had to eliminate most of my social media and news consumption due to overwhelming rage and despair, and stick to reading novels and thinking about snacks or having them
If it makes you feel better lots of other people feel the same and that doesn't lead to.voter apathy. Also women are mad about abortion and special elections are swinging wildly to the left and polling is off
