Here's some really good, timely & concise advice from @davidallengreen
As Trump term two gears up:
1. Don't respond to catastrophism & projections into the future of disaster; it'll sap your energy to no good end;
2. Don't respond to illiberals' declarations about what they're going to do - that's what they want so they can 'own' you;
But:
3. Do respond to what they actually do.
The illiberal hope that 1) & 2) will sap your energy for 3) - don't let it!
