The USA isn't just on a path towards being universally hated around the world, it's also fast becoming irrelevant. I fear it will destroy a lot as it goes down but I also expect that w/in my lifetime it'll become dried out & forgettable like post-imperial Britain.

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.
