Trump posting "good, I'm glad he's dead" about Mueller changed my view on this. Before, I would have said celebrating Trump's death would be encouraging some very problematic tendencies. That "the adult in the room" shouldn't be driven by spite. Now, I suppose my position is that I don't really think it's "wrong" to celebrate his death. By doing so, especially by doing so in his own words, we highlight just how toxic a force he was on the U.S. and on the rest of the world. Celebrating his death may well be one of the better acts of defiance against fascism and authoritarianism one can make. If celebrating Hitler's death isn't wrong, perhaps so isn't celebrating Trump's.

And yet, would a stabbing victim celebrate the moment the knife is removed from the wound? Surely that time is better spent staunching the bleeding and dressing the wound than rebuking the knife or the stabber.

So, I suppose my answer "I hope with discretion." I hope to be smart enough to be able to discern when and how to celebrate constructively and when and how is less helpful.
