I have the remnant of Trump before me. I will soon put it behind me . . .

2. The only news items I want to read about him are these:

His conviction by the Senate.

Indictments issuing from SDNY, the Manhattan DA, and any other prosecutors who have the goods on him.

Convictions resulting from these indictments.

Enormous civil judgments against him.

His obituary.

Anything else, I don't give a crap.

3. I will be ready after he's been held to account

By the Senate, by NY, by the Feds and Justice Dept, and finally by SCOTUS. And all his cohorts and family members who dare fantasize ever entering public office to enrich themselves again off the taxpayers back and at our own country's peril.

I'm ready to get on with my life, breathing a little easier too.

But still with an ear to the ground for the sounds of that sociopathic brood and the fascist monster that lords over them.

9. Unfortunately the brownshirt wing of the GOP has just given the US our very own Kristallnacht

which shockingly seems not to have horrified about a third of our country

If we don't have an effective two-year combination plan, involving organizing around our own successes and holding the brownshirt accountable, I'm afraid we're in for more of the same

Furor guy, unfortunately, is part of that story: we need to avoid unnecessarily giving him useless publicity, but we can't ignore the larger anti-democratic conspiracy which he helped create and foster

Our task is to try to create a new and stable centrist coalition, around a new center, and it must involve some repudiation of the recent past

I will be calling out and standing up for accountability and justice, nothing less is acceptable. I want him to suffer in every way imaginable, throughout eternity. Only at that time will I feel I will be able to rest. He needs to be humiliated, jailed, broke and broken for every last minute he is alive on Earth. I want his name to be uttered in the same context as Hitler, his hero.

12. As far as I'm concerned, he was convicted by the ultimate jury-- voters. And

many of his supporters have abandoned him.

A jail term would be great, but trump is gone and is — whether he shows it or not — the most embarrassed loser on the planet, likely for decades.

social media access. He’ll figure out a way to try and get in our faces again. Hope the media, at least the media I plug in to, doesn’t bite.

I also want to hear of any indictments, but otherwise my brain is enjoying this new plac. Still troubled, but without him taking up space.
