If Americans allow the Rs to continually chip away at norms, freedoms and laws, who knows what the next Trump will be like.

This is a good point. It’s what Sam Harris discussed on his podcast. If Trump actually had any virtues he would have been exponentially more dangerous.
The corona virus validated just how pathetically lazy and incompetent Trump is. Someone with the virtues of hard work and diligence would have been able shut borders and remake the country into “their vision”, whatever that may be.
All under the auspices of “controlling the virus”.
He was too pathetic useless to even control the virus.
