You mean the same way as with Brexit? We can only hope that the people who voted for him will have the same capacity for regret.

We haven't done anything quite that irreversible yet.

We voted for an authoritarian. We're really damn close to irreversible.

Probably not, but the effects of the next 4 years could last a very long time. Look at climate change alone - run the model of 4 more years of pumping as much as we can instead of scaling back as much as we can - and see where that gets us in 50 years.

Our children will pay the price for today's votes. But hey, at least we'll have cheap gas (maybe).
