That's the thing. And Trump HAS to go. I don't that point needs further discussion.
The problem is that removing Trump isn't going to fix anything. The lunatics are in control and are driving the bus. And while it is worst on the conservative right (by far), it is also true across the political spectrum that the quality of leadership continues to slide, the quality of discussion continues to deteriorate, and the quality of people in politics continues to fester.
It is difficult to be hopeful or optimistic about politics, going forward.
