It was hard to tap the little heart on this post even though I’m very grateful for your powerful words. Thank you for giving voice to the depth of the atrocity, to the moral injury caused by witnessing all this.
Great observations. Just want to add, though, that the enormous turnout at last Saturday's demonstrations (and the signs displayed in same) show that many people can call bullshit bullshit. MANY. Now all that's needed is winning political leadership and repair.
Great column! Thank you! Next time, maybe, use a universal epithet as an example ("Jerk?" "As***le?" ) instead of one that only applies to women. It would be appreciated.
I gave this word the same careful consideration I give every word, and decided on this epithet because misogyny is a central aspect of Trump and of his cult.

(But my apologies is it was inadvertently hurtful—the intended effect was to mimic, not echo.)
Brilliant. Sharing everywhere.
Thank you for your rage and eloquence, and for shining a light on the ruins.
