Just sharing a quick comparison of our past and our present...

"FDR knew that the history of the nation’s past is part of its charter for the future. Policies come and go. Leaders will pass from the stage. The enduring sail and compass of our nation is ‘We the people.’ When the American people are strong and confident, when their leaders hear their voices, America, whatever storms it might be weathering, will make it through." -- (Ronald Reagan)

"Just get out and vote. If you do that, we're going to win, and we're going to win big. And we're going to shove it up their ass." -- (Donald J. Trump)

Ergh.
Still find it hard to believe the American people chose* to inflict this depraved and disgusting pig upon themselves.

*No not all of them, thankfully.

Trump managed to convince a lot of middle and lower class voters that he is “one of them”. How I do not know!

Also, he rode—and continues to ride—a considerable wave of White fear. We must never lose sight of how fundamentally racist much of this country is.
