trump has NOT derailed. He is EXACTLY the person he has always been, toxically narcissistic, amoral, corrupt, and with not the slightest regard for the democratic traditions and norms that make our system of self rule possible. It's hard to overestimate the damage trump has done to the country, convincing many tens of millions of citizens that lies are truth, that news media are the "enemy of the people", and of course that "ignorance is strength".
