Trumpism Conservatives love to jeer Democrats for being obsessed with Trump, for letting him live, as many put it, rent-free in our heads. It's a cruel accusation, like setting someone's house on fire and then  laughing at them for staring at the flames. The outrage Trump sparks leaves less room for many other things – joy, creativity, reflection – but every bit of it is warranted. The problem is the president, not how his victims respond to him.
