There is a growing sense among many pro-democracy Americans and the public at large that Trumpism and the MAGA are not forever. Several prominent voices have been channeling Winston Churchill, who marked the British victory at El Alamein in World War II by proclaiming: “Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.”
In reality, Trump’s MAGA coalition is continuing to attack and wear down American democracy and society. His shock-and-awe campaign may have lost its thunderous momentum, but the offensive never stopped.
