We've had two previous Trump Despair threads, first during his transition period, and again during his cabinet nomination process.
Now that we're midway through his first 100 days in office, I thought maybe some of us could use another one.
I am feeling profoundly overwhelmed by the onslaught of troubling news. Every day brings a fresh new hell. With each reminder that Trump's objective is to utterly destroy the federal government, decades of diplomacy, the economy, and everything we value, I feel deeper despair.
And I feel very concerned about the creeping normalizing of all of it.
I am figuring I'm (still) not alone in that. So here is a thread to talk about it, again, for anyone and everyone who needs it.
