From your lips to God's ears, my friend! But I didn't name Trump in my conclusion, because it's not just Trump. It's elections at all levels, from town councils and school boards, to state judges and lawmakers, all the way up to federal posts including the presidency.

Trump has done a pretty effective job taking over the Republican Party and turning it into a party that demonizes the other.

Trump could get smashed at the polls this year like he did last time, and the problem might only get worse, as it did last time.

We have a lot of work ahead of us.
