Trump is the symptom, not the cause. He deserves to be hated but simply "stopping" him won't stem the tide that created him. He's a clever idiot who became the face of it and there are a hundred others who could take up the mantle waiting in the wings. Stop Trump without "stopping" the social forces that caused his rise will do nothing. America has sown the seeds for this in countless countries around the world and we are now reaping the harvest in our own society. Stopping him in particular won't change anything. To stave this off you'd have to fundamentally change what American society is. This is a “both sides” issue. Just understand that without fundamental changes to the inequality and cruelty of our economic and political life, something that I think we can all agree the establishments on both sides have shown an utter unwillingness to undertake.
