This is quite a litany of all the damage that Trump has done to our country....
....in the past three years. It's from a Huffington Post article about a Washington Post editorial.
Trump had “torched” the country’s “standing in the world, loyalty to allies, commitment to democratic values, constitutional checks and balances, faith in reason and science, concern for Earth’s health, respect for public service, belief in civility and honest debate, beacon to refugees in need, aspirations to equality and diversity and basic decency,” it added. Yep, that's a pretty good summary, at least of the general highlights.

5. Madam Malaise has a ring to it. Sorry. You've had your screen name for a long time....
....no doubt since before Trump was inflicted upon us. The definition of malaise....
"a general feeling of discomfort, illness, or uneasiness whose exact cause is difficult to identify" ....was perhaps more appropriate back then. Today we know the source of our "discomfort". |

6. Not at all - from the day Reagan and Thatcher signed on to the market over
society, this planet has been in crisis. Chile was the test run.
