In the days to come, after the Trump nightmare is over, after Trump and his treasonous administration have been moved from the White House to the cages where they belong, historians will look at this period and shake their heads. This photo may end up in high school history texts, when we can wrest the truth back from the fundamentalist Christians and far right wing nuts and begin teaching our children actual history instead of some ideologically cleaned product.

I live for the day when our pain becomes a memory and freaks like Charles Koch have had their treason against our democracy exposed in the spotlight and we've finally returned to decency as a people.
