Normalization
--
Sure, it sounds like a very good idea to be careful about normalizing what Trump does, but it might be instructive to remember what was normalized as Obama became president. Basically, it was a normalization of bailing out an entire failed capitalist system with billions of taxpayer money. It was a normalization of the frequent use of the espionage act. It was the normalization of “kill lists” and the use of drones. It was the normalization of “looking forward” and not prosecuting those responsible for torture. It was the normalization of not doing squat about the fraudulent banks. The list could go on and on.
