Democracy may have prevailed this time but Trump has seriously damaged
respect for the democratic institutions that have made it work for going on 250 years. Just look at the way people are baselessly and mindlessly claiming a fair and legal election was stolen. Look at the way they’re saying SCOTUS was in on the steal. Look at the way members of Congress are talking about overturning the legitimate election results. Look at the way a retired general who was the national freaking security advisor (!) has urged Trump to declare martial law. Look at the way Trump supporters approve the pardoning of convicted murderers. By writing off these things as inconsequential, you’re a perfect example of the damage done. It’s a shallow and stupid position to take.
