When history of the moment is definitively authored a few decades from now, it'll start with a Dickensian note.
"These were the dumbest of times... There were those in charge, and they knew a lot, if not everything, about everything (if you asked them)... There were those shaking a fist, advocating for a return to common sense, and sanity (with which they claimed unconvincingly to be somewhat familiar)...
The Big Dumb was a like a Dark Ages. Thankfully, given no one had an attention span greater than forty-five seconds by 2025, what would normally have passed over centuries came and went in a little more than a decade. And now we live in peace, managed by the Holy Algorithm and AI Parliament.
...And all is for the best in this best of all possible worlds. "

In the Bluest of the Blue places on Earth (San Fran and NYC. not like I'm outing myself to anyone at this point), I'm still getting directed phone calls and texts. About 5 a day. I'm also getting NeverTrump emails averaging about 10, daily.
Next few months are going to be VERY.ANNOYING. On all fronts.
