Mark my words:
Decades of past denial and delay now mean the planetary crisis is going to rip through American politics like nothing we've seen since the Civil War.
Everything we see now is but a little of what's coming, as people grasp what's actually at stake in their lives.

We're living in a discontinuity now.
That discontinuity is growing, and the rate it grows increases the longer it takes us to begin large-scale action.
Nothing about our lives will remain untouched over the coming decades. Much will be changed utterly.
That's reality now.

What will add real volatility to American politics is not the current effort to pass reasonable climate policy through efforts like the GND, but their inevitable short-term defeat in the face of deeply entrenched and powerful predatory delay.
