Racism/Bigotry/Misogyny Likely To Grow More Violent & Common.

Trump & GOP have unleashed a multitude of monsters on the body politic and the country. And the truth is they really don't care. In fact I think they enjoy unleashing their little minions on certain classes. It will be hard to stay passive yet resistant when attacks escalate. And victims will have to learn how to play offense when necessary.

Bullies count on not being countered. Trump is a perfect exempt of expecting his victims to cooperate in their derision or beating. It will not be enough to just be passive in the end. It is ironic how the 'never Trumpers" are crawling back to the king.

The signs are troubling. I dread inauguration day. Things are likely to really change and NOT for the better. The true nature of this GOP/Trump beast will come out. Right now it is sleeping.

those are as much cultural issues as they are legal ones, and what our culture is is decided by all of us, how we behave, and what we will tolerate.
