There's no need for such pessimism. I know you've invested yourself and your resources quite a bit in the election. The fact that your investment didn't pay off as much as you - and many like you - hoped doesn't mean that the end is nigh.

America is clearly holding its own, both on governmental and citizen level, against this outside-inside assault. Just look at the people refusing to do the crazy president's bidding! It's astonishing just how organized in their discontent have come to be and how collected in their outpour of action. Separate persons and entire states are saying "No" to the narcissist-in-chief, and there seems to be no stopping to that.

I don't think the end of the US is anywhere near. This is definitely going to leave a scar, but scars remind us never to make the same mistake again. You guys surely will make it happen out there - and if you aren't impressed that a Russian is telling you that, I don't know how you ever will be.
