A person just emailed me a question:
"Will we never get rid of Trump and his followers"
The answer, unfortunately, is no.
People have this idea that the problems started in the past 40 or so years, and before that, we had a rosy democracy.

A bit of history should dispel that.
Trump and his supporters have been around since the start of the nation.
They were slaveowners and fought to keep their slaves.
They massacred Native people.
They kept women in the home and dependent on men for their livelihoods.

They're not going away.
The idea that America was a rosy place until the GOP went off the rails over the past 50 years is such a weirdly privileged idea.
Before the New Deal, there was no social security, no workers protection. Returning soldiers were left to starve.
