    Damage isn’t obvious. A lot of it is:

    • Declining/damaged trust from allies and such.

    • Financial decisions that don’t cause massive disruption but start to move things in the opposite direction from progress and toward greater wealth inequality.

    • General degradation of norms and values that our countries and allies rely on

    • Don’t get me started on national security issues with how easy it was to get in Trumps ear by sitting at mar a Lago, spending a bunch of $ at his properties, meetings where translator notes were destroyed, stolen documents…

    • all the intelligence assets/ways&means burned because of the document handling and other stuff

    All of this together makes it a lot easier for enemies to manipulate the populace and eventually cause some large scale disruption which would be probably under the opposing party (democrats) to continue to encourage trumpism and the politics that got us there.

    Lastly, if you didn’t suffer from anything negative from Trumps presidency, you’re lucky or ignorant. Chances are it’s affecting you in ways you either don’t know/understand or don’t care about. Essentially all trump did for the white working man is give them a warm fuzzy feeling inside
