Joshua Foust produces a long long long list of starkly abnormal things going on in Trump’s campaign and post-election activities, and caps it with this:
Joshua Foust, This Is Not Normal
Look, I gave up at this point. I’m sure all of you can find more disturbing, deeply abnormal things he has said and plans to do. The point is that this is not normal: it is abnormal. It is a series of giant warning sirens about something fundamentally going wrong with our country. It has nothing to do with right or left, with Republican or Democrat — huge numbers of Republican voters are appalled by what Trump represents.
The only response I can think of for this: refuse. Refuse to accept this. Refuse to make it normal. Refuse to let him and his cronies redefine how the country works. Refuse to let our country be stolen from us. Only by refusing to let this feel normal can we hope to reverse it. So: I refuse. Will you join me?
Yes, Joshua, I will join you – and John Oliver – in refusing to accept Trump’s election and presidency as normal. And yes, it represents something deeply unsettling about our country, a dramatic white identity backlash against the progressive agenda of the coastal liberals.
I refuse to let this feel normal. That’s at least a start.
