I've been waging The Trump Resistance from this blog, and on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter, since the day before Trump was inaugurated in January 2017. I've spent hours on LinkedIn, a hotbed of Trumpian True Believers, refuting absurd posts and claims, for ten months. But now, finally, the end is at hand.
As mental health professionals have publicly warned, starting when Trump announced his candidacy and continuing to this day, Trump is a mental and emotional cripple, incapable of executing the duties of the Office of President. This illegitimate lunatic demagogue has only become more obsessed with feeding his irreconcilable and willfully ignorant base, which stabilized at 30-something percent of Americans within weeks of his taking office. There has been, and will be, no "pivot" to Presidential temperament or behavior, as his apologists insisted would happen during the campaign. He has no intention, inclination, or capacity to reach out to most Americans, who reject him, his Administration, and agenda. He has become more unstable, irrational, delusional, petty, spiteful, and hateful over time.
The madness that began when Trump declared he was seeking the Republican nomination for President, continued through a long primary season, and unprecedented and outrageous Presidential campaign, culminating in Trump's electoral college “election”--thanks to an archaic undemocratic system that over-represents low-population Red States, in which Trump lost the popular vote by a 2.9 million vote plurality in November 2016--and only escalating in the months since he was sworn in in January 2017, is coming to its inevitable conclusion with Trump’s removal from office in disgrace. The "why" is obvious. The "how" and exactly "when" are all that are in doubt. Not soon enough, but better late than never.
Keith Olbermann: “I am retiring from political commentary in all media venues.”
It seems we both have come to the same conclusion: Trump is doomed! Further back and forth with his lunatic 30-something percent irreconcilable and willfully ignorant base, and/or continuing to beat a soon to be dead horse, is unnecessary. I retired from my back and forth with Trumpians on LinkedIn yesterday!
After Trump is gone, we will turn our attention to the malignant cancer he has revealed, his core base: 15 to 20 percent of our fellow citizens, irreconcilable, hateful, willfully ignorant and incompatible with the values and future of our Nation. One way or another, they will be removed from our midst, so that America can continue its march into the diverse, inclusive, non-WASP, non-Filthy Rich dominated future that is our destiny.

Since my Democratic Party seems to have some difficulty understanding the sentiments of We the People, and crafting a "message," I've created a meme to help them out:
