We should be afraid of Trump. I'm not pumping up fear. Don't put that on me. Put that on him.
Democracy can devolve into populism, into tyranny. It is our responsibility, if we can, to stop that from happening. I don't propose a better system, I want to save what's left of it. My aim is hardly ambitious or utopian.
I don't want to have the thread derailed yet again. I would be happy to PM you my thoughts on all this.
