You are right -- this is way bigger than Donald Trump. He is just the most visible pus from a serious infection that threatens the body politics. While it is important that we wipe him off from any government position, we need to act as a united front in order to address that serious infection. We must prevent its spread.
People need to take time, as individuals, to identify how far they are willing to go to save our constitutional democracy. What are they willing to give up? Are they willing to sacrifice their old, bitter resentments? Are they honest enough with themselves to admit that these poison resentments can only feed the very disease that threatens our society? That's the real question confronting us at this most important time in our nation's history.
