From nothingburger to biggest political scandal in US history.
My hope is that, conversely, Trump will have made America great again by waking us all up and reviving our civic virtue.
Problems are not just going to be solved by those in power without the people speaking out, strongly, about causes we believe in. For too long we've let the monied interests in Washington speak the loudest, but it certainly seems like that's changing with #metoo and #neveragain and other movements.

this tweet this morning from a teacher on twitter who had a mistaken lockdown called at her school. Just unbelievable that this is where we are right now as a country, and so many of our leaders defend the status quo.
But we all seem to be waking, as a country, from our lethargy. From being lulled into a sense of complacency due to reasonably effective leaders who kicked cans down the road, but didn't upset things too much (absent a few issues). Hopefully we as a country can get some meaningful stuff done before we go back to sleep.
