During the first Trump admin, I’d wake up & quickly check the news to see what latest circus act had been performed. I’m not doing that this time. There’s a good chance that it will devolve into a performance by a team of bumbling clowns, but the agenda has been much more carefully & expertly developed this time.

I still check what’s happened from time to time, but… Last time it was disbelief at the idiocy of it all. This time, having studied fascism, it’s all too familiar, & horrifying, so I find myself switching off.

I still care. I do. But it’s just too much.
