Frank, keep the faith, America goes back and forth, travel south and you feel like in some places the civil war just ended. Progress comes slow and often falls backward. Look at Germany today, it is more progressive and advanced than America, they actually have a woman in charge, the American right spent twenty years demonizing a single woman thus we have Donnie Trump, a draft dodger, failure in business, a university con-artist, tax cheat, adulterer, etc, but he knows how to use words to stir up his base. Hate is a powerful tool on fertile soil, and dark money conservatives helped create his base. It didn't help we had a black president for that further confirmed the right wing mythology of loss. Today our wealthy drive German autos and our working class Korean or Japanese, support is in India and everything is made in China, meanwhile the Trump snowflake anguishes over a lost world he helped create. Trump will pass but will Americans ever learn, hard to say. And so it goes....
