This moment with Trump, these past few years, have been disastrously bad with countless incompetencies and cruelties and unnecessary tragedies.
But it’s only going to get worse if we don’t reject this madness and get to the hard and necessary work beyond Trump.

Make no mistake. This election is the beginning of a bigger fight. Defeating Trump doesn’t fix the problems he embodies. But it’s a choice between fighting the infection and embracing it in totality and allowing it to wash over us.
A win, legitimate or otherwise, is a surrender.
