A few more incidents like this, and the GOP establishment is going to quietly mutter “You know, we can do better than this asshole.”

Honestly? I think most of the populace would shrug grumble to a trusted friend and go about their day. We like to carry this image of ourselves as valiant defenders of liberty, but if you’ve ever tried to organize any substantial action against injustice, you’ll consistently find that your largest enemy isn’t the cops with riot shields, it is a widespread apathy and unwillingness to take risks for uncertain outcomes. Over the past 20 years we’ve seen the return of torture and detention without trial to public knowledge in the US and the most common reaction was a mild head shake and a return to daily life. I fail to see why that would be any different.

You know what?
Fair.
I said before that I think it’s within the realm of possibility but unlikely. You’re saying it’s unlikely and we’d be better putting our energy elsewhere.
I can agree with that.

The only evidence is testimony that we’re not meant to know. And since we know things that executive privilege plainly forbids us to know, we’re all biased and therefore

“Hashbrown!” Still love that commercial
It’s a neat idea, but illegal.

The GOP establishment has been muttering that since the primaries. The problem they have is that Trump is way more popular with their base than they are. Any Republican that is seen as taking down Trump will be primaried out of existence or just simply lose when the base stays home.
Many a classic horror movie has the moment when the bad guys, having created the monster, must now worship it or face its wrath. The Republican leadership faced that moment four years ago and have been cowering in a corner ever since hoping for some miracle that will turn back the clock.
Such a miracle is not forthcoming.

Texas can’t afford to leave the union. They take in more federal money than they put in.

GOOD POINT: winning is not a form of losing either
If you want your party to win, it better know the difference
-
WINNING (what Trump did)
-
LOSING (what Clinton did)

He can’t even manage to corruptly host the G-7 at Doral.
How would he ever get away with “cancelling” the election:
that is, who is going to help him do this?
There are too few Stephen Millers and Seb Gorkas:
they would be overriden by everyone else, including McConnell.
Comparing or alluding to Germany in 1932 is ridiculous, now.
If we had 2 terms of Trump and 2 terms of another Trump-like candidate,
such that institutions were systemically and chronically corroded…

I’d say it’s a bit late for that. The Redcap In Chief has already gotten the message that the POTUS is supposed to be the ‘quick-acting’ branch of the government, when the ‘slow and methodical’ branches (i.e., Congress and Judiciary) can’t react to a situation with dispatch. And since Don John Two-Scoops has already spent his entire life honing his gaslighting/grifting skills on everyone dumb enough to work for him or rent from him or otherwise do business with him in any way, he’s got all the skills necessary to put the country into ‘crisis mode’ for as long as he lives.
The one and only possible remedy for it is to get a Democrat supermajority into both the House and Senate, to override every veto he casts AND to use their own powers to physically drag him from the White House if/when he refuses to surrender power voluntarily.

The Republicans will do whatever he tells them to.
