Personally I think there are two things that can restore faith in Democracy. 1. Mueller completing his investigation, depending on what follows. If he doesn't recommend prosecution then he needs to give a very thorough presentation of his conclusion. If he does recommend prosecution then Congress must act accordingly. 2. A significant Democrat victory in the 2018 elections, either despite Russia's interference or, ideally, with the Intelligence Community affirming that Russian efforts at interference were thwarted. I genuinely believe those are the two events that can change our outlook on the future of democracy in this country. If neither happens then I will be checking out.
Welcome to Hubski! I would add: 1. act accordingly.... by successfully impeaching him and possible criminal charges being laid against others. 2. ... and successfully impeaching him with Republican cooperation and possible criminal charges being laid against others.
