I’ve been having the same internal debate about The Bulwark. I love the community, but I really don’t like the immediate calls for resignation, especially from Bill, who has been beating this drum for months and must be feeling a little satisfaction that he turned out to be right—except he isn’t. This was and is an uphill battle, with many Americans bafflingly nostalgic for the “good times” under Trump. I remember those years differently, and I will be crushed to return to them, knowing that we are abandoning our allies and condemning Ukraine to Russian occupation, maybe forever. No one remembers the pandemic, or the Muslim ban, or the incompetents in cabinet positions like Betsy DeVos. I wish anti-Trumpers would focus on Trump and less on congratulating each other for their incisive pieces on why Biden Lost The Election In One Night. I’m disappointed in my allies while also aware this was going to happen. Democrats and Republicans have different priorities and values. Right there with you, Michelle, except I haven’t made my mind up yet.

One thing for sure: I’m not upgrading to Founder, which I was thinking about. So many disappointments today, especially the Supreme Court decision on immunity.
