As I wrote in a guide to surviving demagoguery 8 years ago, if you favor Trump or some of his policies and support him in good faith, make a list of things now you would be disappointed if he did or did not do. Try to keep yourself honest if you can. Don’t join a cult.

The US Senate that just begun its work has only 3 states with split party delegations - ME, PA, WI. That’s the smallest share of the body in the history of elected senators.
