Donald Trump’s fascism has never been more stark, his lying never more odious, his disdain for our democracy never more reprehensible.

Let’s not have any more of this “razor-thin” or “underwhelming” assessment, driven by FL / OH results four days ago:

-Trump out of office
-First female VP, second POC prez/vp
-Will probably be ~5 million vote margin
-Won’t be “narrow” in EC.
This matters and is historic.
