    some things will be marginally better

    I can't help but feel like I'm being hopelessly cynical when I say it, but I just can't bring myself to believe even this much. I would need to believe that the president is willing or able to do something like, for example, declaring the ICE camps a humanitarian crisis on day 1 and bringing in a non-police agency like FEMA or something to take over and start pairing kids with their parents ASAP while also providing follow-up counseling and reparation payments. That's some fucking harm reduction. As it is I believe 100% that the business of the past four years will simply continue exactly as it has been but the media will stop being so incensed about it.
