I share all of your very same sentiments Sir, and your assessment is accurate that we will never be the same. Here is a Washington Post article about how the Republican party really never parted from McCarthyism, and created the Deplorable Republican party of today by using the TRUMPISM Era to take the country away from the people!
I think you will find it very concerning, because the TRUMPISM Era is never going away now either- even if Trump croaked tomorrow on 5th Avenue or spends the rest of his life in jail. Every American should be concerned by what is going on now and what will follow Trump! And everyone should be concerned about the rogue and corrupt criminal Republican Party.

Let me know what you think! Because I am very concerned for our country moving forward in time.
