  ""I don't take responsibility at all."" Those words of Donald Trump at a March 13, 2020, press conference are likely to be history's epitaph on his presidency. 
  A huge swath of Americans have put their faith in Trump, and Trump only, because they see the rest of the country building a future that doesn’t have a place for them.  
  If they would risk their lives for Trump in a pandemic, they will certainly risk the stability of American democracy. They brought the Trumpocalypse upon the country, and a post-Trumpocalypse country will have to find a way either to reconcile them to democracy - or to protect democracy from them. 
  In Trumpocalypse, David Frum looks at what happens when a third of the electorate refuses to abandon Donald Trump, no matter what he does. Those voters aren’t looking for policy wins. They’re seeking cultural revenge. 
  It is not enough to defeat Donald Trump on election day 2020. Even if Trump peacefully departs office, the trauma he inflicted will distort American and world politics for years to come. Americans must start from where they are, build from what they have, to repair the damage Trump inflicted on the country, to amend the wrongs that, under Trump, they inflicted upon each other. 
  Americans can do better. David Frum shows how—and inspires all readers of all points of view to believe again in the possibilities of American life. Trumpocalypse is both a warning of danger and a guide to reform that will be read and discussed for years to come.

  Threats - Intimidating Someone...

  Threats are an inherent part of human interaction and can manifest in various forms. At their core, threats are attempts to instill fear or assert power by creating the perception of potential harm, whether physical, emotional, or psychological. The nature of threats is complex because they exist on a spectrum, ranging from subtle and covert forms of intimidation to overt and aggressive expressions of force. Understanding the nature of threats is essential, as it allows individuals and communities to recognize and respond to them effectively. 
  A threat can be defined as any statement, action, or behavior that creates a sense of fear or danger in another person. It involves the intention to coerce, control, or manipulate someone by presenting the possibility of harm. Threats do not necessarily have to be acted upon for them to have a significant impact; the mere perception of harm can be enough to evoke a response. For instance, the threat of violence—whether verbal, physical, or implied—can lead to significant emotional distress, anxiety, and a shift in one’s behavior, even in the absence of any actual harm being done. This highlights the psychological aspect of threats: the fear and tension they generate are often more powerful than the harm that might actually occur. 
  Threats can be both explicit and implicit. Explicit threats are direct and clear in their intent, such as saying “If you do this, I will hurt you” or “You will pay for this.” These types of threats leave little room for misinterpretation and often provoke an immediate response. Implicit threats, on the other hand, are more subtle and may not directly articulate the intended harm. They may involve hints, body language, or situations that suggest harm without overtly stating it. An example of an implicit threat might be a comment like, “You wouldn’t want something bad to happen, would you?” which leaves the recipient uncertain but still fearful of what may follow.
