FYI from my side it looked like there was some general pattern of escalation starting in the 90s. (Or hell maybe it’s reasonable to say it started with FDR), and then there’s a mostly-different kind of escalation happening with Trump.
I agree there is some escalation spiral that needs to stop or transform. Part of why I emphasized getting a republican bought in early is that that seemed like a good litmus test for “are you on track to deal with things in a deeper way?”
