Thank you, Mitchell. You have not lost me nor the people we both hold dear together. More to come, but I am passing this on to people who matter, who are rational, sane, self-critical, and proud Americans (for the aforementioned reasons, not the enumerated false gods and facile "solutions" that you've ID'd). There is so much more to do, and it begins not with finger-pointing but with lifting up those around us who are more fragile, who have even more at stake, who will be made more vulnerable. We are in pain; we are not defeated.
