Calamity and change have happened throughout history. It's not "normal" compared to 10 years ago, but the world and the US have experienced bad leadership throughout history. We will get through this. People will get hurt physically and financially. But at some point, the world will move onto something else. It's not meant to be dismissive. The current phase is very serious. But it will change again.
