      Americans elect a moron to the presidency every ten to fifteen years going back to the country’s founding.

      It’s not a matter of recovery so much as a hurdle that liberal democracy routinely stumbles over.

      You created the culture that put him there. You allow him to remain there. None of the problems associated with Trump have much to do with Trump and have everything to do with your broken culture.
