  Yeah, maybe we can nationalize them with the clause that it kicks in when his heart stops beating

    This is the same mistake everyone makes. They think Donald Trump is just a person. That he actually matters and we just have to get rid of him and everything will be okay.

    It doesn’t work that way.

    But as fascism didn’t die with Hitler, it’s not going to die with Trump either. All of the problems — all of the rifts in our society — will still be there when he’s gone.

      Very true. It’s easy to focus on a figurehead and much harder to target a broad feeling of disillusionment affecting tens of millions.
