"Fear Trump, but have faith in the endurance of U.S. institutions."

Actually, it's those US institutions, the same ones that sanctified slavery, genocide of American Indians, women, farmers and workers as second class citizens, the conquest by force of all North America,  that need change. The same institutions in the hands of elitist billionaires are what's been holding back democracy and the prosperity of working people. They were made to control people, not serve them.
  The Church, the military-industrial complex, Wall Street, the banks - these are the enemies of democracy. Now it's the dysfunctional Congress and multinational world-wide corporatocracy. Don't expect Trump to touch any of them. But folks need a dream.

  I liked Trump's way of passing power on to the people. Power to the people. That's what democracy is all about. Easy to say, difficult to do. But millions of folks will be reminding him about his declaration of democracy in the next four years.
