Don't worry, I'm not going to hold my breath for a decade and I won't be working on excuses for Trump either.
One of three things will happen (in the order from most to least likely):
- The PTB will find a way to reject Trumpian politics (if not Trump himself) while managing to keep the pro-wealth gains Trump made (especially the sweetheart tax deal) but dumping the neo-Fascist part of his message, or
- The leftward drift in the Democratic Party will be validated at the polls, and the 4T will resolve with 1950s-like high taxes on the rich, more social spending on schools and the like, and an infrastructure update project that will last for 25 to 30 years, or
- The Dems counter to Trump will fail and Trump will establish his junta as the New American Democracy.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
