Here is what I fear that Trump's victory caused:
1) Election template - level of personal insults and outrageous lies with no regard to whether the world knows the truth is not being told is going to be the new template for winning elections. And yes, politicians have always done this on some level, but not to this level. This new premium put on being "non-pc" just means we're going back to accepting that it's now OK to disrespect people who aren't you.
2) Validating Wikileaks - make no mistake, wikileaks and foreign entities just successfully influenced a U.S. presidential election. We have just further empowered Wikileaks to impact future elections and U.S. policy. People who were cheering Wikileaks on because they targeted the "enemy," we've just opened the door for wikileaks copycats and don't count on these folks always targeting democrats. This is not good for our country and you can't pour the spilled milk back in the carton now.
3) FBI - back in the J. Edgar Hoover days the FBI was used to settle scores and do the bidding to destroy enemies. That letter from two weeks ago is the first step to going back to those days. And if you don't think based on his past business history that Trump isn't going to use the governmental resources to quiet his critics and take down his enemies, you're crazy. If you were uncomfortable with Clinton's lack of transparency, get used to even less transparency.
4) Make America Great Again - we all know what this was code for and we know the direction is country is now going back to. Just like in the 50's, things were wonderful for certain people, others caught h*ll, and evidently a lot of people are OK with this. It's no coincidence that Trump was the candidate of choice for the KKK and other similar groups.
5) Facts do not matter - a large segment of voters decided facts don't matter. Just tell me what I want to hear. Lie to me. As much as you (and I) may not like Clinton, she has been investigated by more people about more "scandals" than any candidate in history and it resulted in nothing. But that doesn't matter because "facts" now don't matter. Just invent your own "facts."
6) Voter suppression - this election validated the success of voter suppression efforts. I think this country was about allowing more eligible voters to make their voices heard, not devising strategies to make it difficult for "certain people" to vote. Again, its part of "Making America Great Again," going back to the days of poll taxes and literacy tests to vote.
The country will survive this no matter how bad Trump is, but it's gonna be a wild ride (see GW Bush X 10).
