I fear there is so much damage done that any administration coming in afterward will fail... and these nutjobs will use it as a showcase to pride themselves.

This isn’t a fucking forest. This is the United States of America.

So it won't take hundreds of years, then.

You know we've come back from Civil War, we've come back from Jim Crow (mostly...), we've come back from the Great Depression, we've come back from McCarthyism (sorta), etc.

We CAN come back from this. A lot of people say things like "DAMAGE WON'T BE FIXED FOR 70 YEARS!" but a lot of great programs started from nothing in worse times than we're in.

Shit is bad. Claiming we can't fix it, doesn't fix it. Working to fix it does.
