The hangover is going to be historic.
The damage done to our institutions, principles, and norms is real and a result of a systematic effort to undermine them. A consequence of this effort to dismantle is an erosion of the military/civilian relationship, in terms of the military being subservient to the authority of the president. When the president is deemed to be consistently not acting in the interests of the nation and there appears to be no political/civilian remedy, then that relationship becomes strained.
The next president and the next congress are going to have to actively address the damage to our institutions and make the necessary repairs. This is serious shit, which too often gets lost in all the partisan noise.
