I feel the same about the Trump presidency. He and his cohorts attempted to subvert the system, pen testers if you will, but the system responded and survived. In the end, we should thank Trump for helping to improve the American system of rule of law and governance.

The jury is out for a while on whether the result was "survived" or "gave a better playbook for next time". Those on the left would tend to argue the lack of consequences thus far encourages a more competent attempt.

I'm confident that the people in the system have woken up to the fact that a large scale attack can come from within the system, which was previously unthinkable, and adjustments will be made to help prevent it from occurring again.

I really wish I saw what you saw. Instead, I see utter complacency.
