The former president raised $4.18 million on Friday alone, the single-highest 24 hour period of his campaign to date.

    I think you’re misreading this. I’ve been varying levels of nauseous for 7 years now and every single hour of every single one of those days, I’ve screamed internally, “something is going to be done, this will get better, he will be stopped.” And absolutely nothing happens. It just gets worse and worse and it’s been deeply destructive to my mental health. It’s emotionally safer to distance yourself from this. Pessimism is a shield against the arrows of disappointment.

    I won’t feel safe until that man expires while serving several lifetime sentences behind bars and all of his followers are shunned into obscurity. If then. Such is the nature of trauma.

      I recommend listening to Legal AF. They’re lawyers following the Trump case, and I think they’ll give you some hope and a good perspective on how fucked Trump is (the episode titles are a bit clickbait-y, but the core information is good). It’s helped me not completely give up and say, “Well, rich people always get off scot free.”

      Trump hasn’t seen justice, yet, but he also hasn’t been to court except to be arraigned. We all want justice yesterday, but he’ll have to defend himself for real early next year.
