Trump and his demons: Why the assault on democracy will get worse

https://www.salon.com/2020/01/28/donald-trump-and-his-demons-why-the-assault-on-democracy-will-get-worse/

After Trump's acquittal, his political chorus will continue to sing his praises. Powered by a mix of self-righteousness, white male rage, and right-wing victimhood, entitlement and grievance, Trump will likely seek revenge, launching a fully unrestrained attack on the Constitution, the rule of law, American democracy, the Democrats, liberals, progressives and any person or group who dares to try to hold him accountable.

The American people and the Democratic Party have one option left to stop Donald Trump. On Election Day in November they must vote him out of power. To this point, America does not seem up to the task.
