It's stuff like this that makes me doubt the whole "Trump will own the Republican party for years" thing


I keep saying - I reckon most prominent Republicans who defend Trump have only done so for purely opportunistic reasons.  They know he's a jerk who has no real friends (political or everyday) and that he dumps on anyone who crosses him in a heartbeat.   People like Raffensperger will not appreciate having to worry about a Trump cultist stalking him with a gun for doing his job.

So his idiot base may be loyal to him for a year or two after he's gone, but the "establishment" Republicans are going to dump on him as soon as he is out of the White House.

Again - I could be completely wrong.   But it just seems the most plausible take to me.

Firstly idiot is a noun not an adjective.
Republicans are playing with fire here.

Do they not realise every tinpot dictator will simply replicate what they are doing to stay in power.

It is like calling the media fake news simply because you lie a lot and get caught out all the time.
A free press is a necessary ingredient of a democracy
