We need to stop worrying about that minority of the country and what they think until we get through the other side of this problem. They don’t need facts (indeed, they resent facts). There is no amount of evidence that will convince them. They will do things; they will make accusations; they will act out based on the random susurrations of their chosen pundits without consideration, or in opposition to, plainly obvious truth.
As long as the majority of people in the US remain cowed by what the MAGAt 27% say or do, Trump holds the advantage. Hesitation is deadly when dealing with someone who defies societal norms and laws without blinking. The only way to win through to the other side is to keep pressure on him so that he keeps making mistakes, and makes bigger and bigger blunders that even the middle of the GOP start seeing him as a threat.
I was thinking about this last night. Oddly enough, with all the shit Trump has pulled, it’s the times he’s shit on his own party that have put him at greatest risk. Using his veto on the resolution against his Fauxmergency declaration and the Yemen withdrawal, both of which were fairly bipartisan, that’s the kind of thing that will get 67 Senators behind his removal.
