OK, I'll put it differently


There was a column in the FT by someone named Edward Luce. (I'll link it but it is paywalled so probably not worth the effort.) Luce made a number of good points but I want to highlight two of them.
* Philosophers teach us to sift reality from desire - the "is/ought" distinction. Trump ought not to be president. Yet he is. Will Democrats grasp the difference?
* Trump has a knack for inciting liberals to stereotype themselves. The more Democrats invest in the Trump outrage machine, the less they put into a case for governing.
