Consolidating recent thoughts, feel free to skip: At one level, all Donald Trump did was yell at the top of his lungs what the Republican Party had been murmuring since the Civil Rights Act of 1964—Nixon with the Southern strategy, Reagan with states' rights and welfare queens—keep America white.

Tim Kreider wrote "American conservatism is demographically terminal and knows it." The U.S. is becoming a white-minority country, church attendance is down, each generation is more open to women's and gay rights than the last.

For years, the GOP has been fighting a rearguard action against tolerance and progress, seeking to maintain minority rule via the Electoral College and ever more brazen voter suppression, gerrymandering, and cheating.

The Ron DeSantis / Moms for Liberty agenda isn't just to destroy public education in favor of private schools. It's to rewrite history and erase whole branches of study in a desperate attempt to literally deny that Black and gay people exist.

The only thing Trump added was to embrace, revel in, wallow in meanness and violence. Praising actual Nazis. Showing his disgust at the sight of handicapped people and wounded soldiers. Urging violence against Blacks and journalists. Calling for the death of generals who don't kowtow to him.

America was already the land of gun worship and mass shootings. It is now a land of daily death threats and physical attacks on teachers, school boards, reporters, healthcare workers, flight attendants, shopkeepers.

Newt Gingrich pioneered calling other Americans sick, treasonous, dangerous enemies instead of fellow citizens who have different ideas. Donald Trump normalized the belief that other Americans should be eliminated and killed. That is his legacy forever in Hell.
