that Trump in his colossal fall will take a lot of republicans with him, republicans that Democrats have been unable to unseat for years. This will be a historical fracturing of the republican party. Either they will have to reinvent themselves or start a new party. That will take time and in the interim, Democrats will finally be able to get things done. I'm picturing a 2nd New Deal, long overdue and actually imperative for our survival as a democracy and for the planet.
