    See, I very naively thought that it would end with his impeachment. Like, I wasn’t surprised by the law breaking, but I figured that he’d be ousted by a simpler thing like emoluments or something. Oh to be young again…

      And the thing was the GOP establishment could have just let him hang himself. They hate that they’ve become a personality cult, but it’s their own fucking fault for propping this guy up.

        That’s what I don’t understand. They have had so many opportunities to get rid of him. They surely know he’s going to lose the next election, I have no clue why they don’t turn on him.

          They’ve allowed him to build a personality cult. If they don’t bend the knee they lose their seat in the primary.
