Trump is just an outcome of the process. I remember being reluctant to admit Bill Clinton's peccadilloes in real time. The definition of "is" speech was my tipping point. But if you list every transgression and weakness of the Clintons, real and imagined, you can find a more egregious actual offense by Donald Trump. It is not fifty-fifty situation, but a glaring abomination of deceit and low character that most republicans cannot oppose. I have no faith that it will change when he is gone. It would take a strong and charismatic man with an insightful message of bipartisanship to unite us in the era of "fake news". I do not see that happening.

From now on, any excess of self glorification, any inane tweet, any vainglorious boast from a president will be labeled trumpean and all Trump's sins will be loaded on the poor guy or gal who dared to set foot on Mt.
