I joined a few months after you, but it seems that our combined Sphere experience has nothing to do with the ego and self-destructive madness that Donald Trump has brought to the Presidency this time around. I wake up every morning afraid to check the news for fear of what that fool and his henchmen have done now. Congress should be fighting him, but the Republicans are in the majority in both houses, and they've turned into a pack of groveling cowards. Our only hope is the judiciary - where we may just squeeze by on a bunch of 5-4 votes as it all goes to the Supreme Court - but as of now Trump and his stooges are ignoring the courts. I'm very scared.
Parenthetically, I really think - as do many - that Trump is losing it mentally. He veers from one approach to another, cannot carry on a discussion that does not center around himself and his ego. The problem is that he has surrounded himself with like-minded fanatics, and at best it's going to be a long, tough slog to restore America.
