excllent piece. right wing podcaster Candice Owens, a huge trump supporter, said she does not recognize this administration anymore, Joe Regan called trump out, on immigration not having hearings for the deportees, perhaps the maggats are seeing some things for what they actually are.
I hope you’re right, Guy, but I wouldn’t bet on it. Never trust a Trumper, is my motto, because supporting Trump is a profoundly irrational act.

Jan,
Your last paragraph is as complete a dirty laundry list as I could imagine.
I just saw a corroborating piece of poll data that is as disturbing as I can, again, imagine: 15% of those polled believe that Trump should ignore the Supreme Court if it rules against him.
I just hope that, somehow, the damage he is causing can be ameliorated.
