We seem to do this in cycles until we learn to keep our eyes open to everyone's humanity. We always seem to want to be saved from someone else by someone else but never to take responsibility for our membership in humanity by being good and demanding goodness.
I have a feeling he will be an excellent President and that the US will experience something like a mini renaissance of confidence and patriotism.
You wrote very commpellingly about Germany and the Hitler era, but attempts to suggest Trump is any sort of comparison has become a tiresome trope. Trump wasn't even interested in pursuing political power until the end of his 6th decade of life....leaving it somewhat late to emulate the evil one, plus the US hasn't been in any sort of comparable situation to 1930s Germany.

Well done
Thank you.

I doubt it, but it's an empirical question.

Well, I don't claim that Trump emulates Hitler nor do I claim that the situation in the US resembles Germany in 1932!
well, you have clearly fooled me.
