So I am pretty serene. I think the long game will pretty soon wipe repubs away. If not now pretty soon. 2020? too soon maybe. But 2024 a third or more of angry old white guys will have been replaced by younger people. We will get universal health care. We can rent cars per trip then instead of owning them, save a ton of money. Block chain will cut the 20% of our national income drained by finance companies to 15%, headed to 10. Be calm. Be happy. Trump is just a temporary temporary problem.
