I worry about the entire structure of American democracy under Trump.

Trump is what Obama critics think Obama is: Someone who's focused on symbolism rather than substance.

At best, Trumpism will be a more right-wing version of the same old Republican Party.

In the long run, however much damage we come through, Obama's vision is the one that's going to be left standing. It's a question of how much pain and suffering America has to endure in the meantime.

Everything on Twitter is true.

In some ways, Trump is just going to continue the trend: by continuing the norm-smashing behaviour that Republicans used in opposition.

Barack Obama is pretty similar to the person you see in public, at press conferences. He's a little saltier, a little more sarcastic and cutting.
