I'm not surprised that Trump is terrible. We all have known that for almost a decade now. What I'm surprised by is the extent to which almost everyone with any power is rolling over for him. When he won the first time in 2016, there were demonstrations. Everyone was talking about resistance. Remember when most of the media industry was using the idea of resistance as a marketing tool? The Washington Post adopted the slogan "Democracy Dies in the Darkness" just after Trump was inaugurated. Remember Democratic leaders promising to fight Trump?
None of that is happening now. That's really what is terrifying me.
