Our lives, lives around the world, 200 years of democracy could come down to a bag of coffee

I honestly think that what might get through is seeing that bag of coffee rise in price $3.00 overnight. We could be saved by a bag of coffee or a carton of eggs.
We won't be saved by history or truth or facts or the deaths of millions of people.
We might be saved by a bag of coffee because that is what could set off some of those 75 million that voted for this. The price of coffee. Or eggs.
It was a strange bewilderment and sadness I felt standing in the coffee aisle at the market the other day. How fucking weird is that?
