What to do now that Trump has full power?

Following two weeks of mourning, despair and hand-wringing about the outcome of the US Presidential Election, it’s certainly a bad idea to start haphazardly on one random path. Instead, it might be time to ask questions like “What’s next” and “What workable options are there?” 

We have in fact many choices. 

  • One is to do nothing, be just a spectator and watch the destruction of the American institutions at the hand of a disruptor who has no idea about his own end-game. 
  • Another is to be angry and resentful for at least four years and self-destroy ourselves in the process. 
  • A third is to find an actionable way that will make a difference, no matter how small or large, and will end up adding to similar efforts by others and account for some positive influence. 

By far, the latter approach seems preferable to me and I want to explore it fully. 

It will take some sorting out, a lot of creativity and, why not, might end up making a huge difference, even if it seems insignificant at the moment. Stay tuned!
