Think you have me mixed up with @Mad Eyed Screamer. ;-)I suppose it is all a matter of one’s point of view. You’re in Florida, yes, Seb? Those are sad tales and I have heard them too. I also concur that Trump will stop at nothing and his only true goals are to insulate himself from responsibility for his crimes and to enrich himself to a point where he can insure that insulation (the two ends work hand in hand). But I also think more and more folks are beginning to see through that as the noose slowly (frustratingly slowly many would say) tightens.
Right now extremists are emboldened by having to take little responsibility for their extremism when it’s talk — there are few consequences. And while you may see opposition as tired I also think there is an element of confidence since Jan 6 that the system has not broken down entirely because consequences were real for many of who participated.
I live in Maine, the big purple wilderness.
And I genuinely hope your optimism turns out be more accurate than my pessimism in this case. For everyone’s sake, including my son’s.
