I thought for certain that by mentioning TRUMP in the third line that would have guaranteed a solid philosophical discussion based on the merits.
May I try to explain myself? What I wrote was, "We have four events right now that were unimaginable 20 or 30 years ago: a climate crisis, the Trump phenomenon, the pandemic, and now an economic crash that economists are calling worse than the Great Depression." When I was questioned about the word "phenomenon" I gave the dictionary definition: "a rare or significant fact or event" and I said, "The four events I mentioned are all phenomena." All I was hoping for was to hear people's personal experiences and thoughts about the COVID-19 crisis and how it might change their life in the long term.
