    In any remotely plausible timeline, history books would tell of this moment as one of the key elements of the fall of the Trump regime, brought on by a complete and total collapse of support.

    Unfortunately, we are on a fucking roll with the chaos d20 lately. So hold on to your butts. :|

      Yup, this won’t amount to anything. A few supporters might support him less, but they won’t be switching support to anyone who’s a decent human being.

        I’m not convinced it’s gonna evaporate yet, but I’m also not convinced that even staunch public fury is going to do fucking anything. Because they’re fascists. And such a public reaction could very well convince Steven “Goebbels was such a champ” Miller and friends that it’s simply time to stop pretending we have any actual trappings of democracy going forward.
