Why do the U.S. media and political classes continue to dismiss Trump's statements about taking over Canada as a distraction from the "real issues," rather than a genuine threat, and a scandal? wonders Asawin Suebsaeng for @RollingStone. Here's his story about the erosion of decency in the United States, some of the evidence that Trump's threats are serious, and how the damage has already been done. "It is, or at least it should be, a damp stain on our national conscience, and your average outraged Canadian is responding rationally," Suebsaeng writes.
