It’s hard to know which aspect of Trumpism is most frightening:  his unhinged narcissism; his sadistic delight in belittling others; his view of himself as the all-powerful leader who will get his way – regardless of cost to others; his reduction of complex issues to illogically simplistic soundbites; his blaming most of society’s ills on those with little actual power; or the menacing undercurrent of violence in his demeanor and message. Civility matters.  It governs our actions.
