In short, we had warning bells about:

• SCOTUS discarding jurisprudence to exercise political power

• Misplaced faith in institutions allowing abuse of power

• The press burying inquiry and truth if they’re “divisive”

…every one of which came back to bite us with Trump.

Bush v Gore was a judicial coup. Our society failed to learn from it.

I’ll echo @futurebird’s question to those who said back in 2000 that acceptance was necessary: Do •you• see that moment in a new light now?
