I love you Charlie Sykes. You were a lone and courageous voice early on in this American horror story. Thank you for being there and helping us cope through your insightful writings and keen commentary. We are close to turning the page on this monster and soon a new chapter will be written with you as an important author in the rebuilding of our American story.

Tax policy, student loan debt… these are negotiations. Disagreements about them are perfectly normal and healthy. We talk about it and we reach a compromise. That’s democracy. That’s the West. That’s who we are. A nation of laws not men.

For some reason, 46 percent of the voting public thinks it’s time to end Western style democracy and bring in a strongman who will unilaterally make decisions. These are the actions of spoiled children, not citizens. And what better avatar for spoiled children than Donald Trump could there be?
