America in the age of Donald Trump is more permissive of explicit racism than it's been at any point since the civil rights era. And because bigotries rarely dance alone, the president's nativism is accompanied by anti-black racism - first seen in his 'birther' crusade against Barack Obama - anti-Muslim prejudice, and anti-Semitism.

This vision of Trump as tribune of the 'real America' has trickled down from Trump's most devoted acolytes to the rest of the Republican Party and the conservative movement.

I've accompanied several dying people on their travels, and the desert seems to be a favored destination. It is very hot and dry and lyrical in its own way.

There was a time when the term liberal had been so thoroughly demonized by those on the right that I remember consciously choosing to call myself a progressive in order to evade the stigma. But there was no change in my perspective that accompanied it.
