This short essay by Myron Magnet is terrific. If you give progressives an inch, they take a mile. Americans finally stood up and said, "Enough!"

To the Editor:
The unthinkable has happened. Aside from Sept. 11, 2001, this is the saddest day for America and the world in my lifetime. I write this from Colombia, visiting with friends and watching the disaster unfold. I cannot wrap my head around the fact that we have elected a sexual predator, tax evader, liar, bigot, xenophobe and hater to the most important office in the world.
I was aghast when George W. Bush won two terms, but I would be thrilled to have Bush 43 back in the White House today. Undocumented immigrants will need to start hiding out. Investors need to brace for a major downturn in the markets, and our allies in NATO need to reconsider their alliances.
A staunch conservative will be named to the Supreme Court, no gun safety laws will be enacted, and we can forget about taking on the catastrophe of climate change. Everything I have believed in and about this great nation is about to come tumbling down, and I wonder how long it will take—if ever—to recover from the blunder of electing Donald Trump.

Note from KBJ: This is as bad a case of Trump Derangement Syndrome as I have seen, and I've seen some pretty bad cases (e.g., George Will, William Kristol, Jonah Goldberg, Stephen Hayes). Has it ever occurred to Henry A. Lowenstein that many Americans felt the same way about Barack Obama's election as he and his ilk feel about Donald Trump's election? America is going to be great again, after eight years of thuggishness and incompetence. Thank God!
