The case against Donald Trump has to be full-orbed....and relentless....but the mistake that is constantly made....and has been for years....is that his opponents focus solely on the latest issue....whether it was the Mueller Report or the Ukraine or January 6 of this year. Liz Cheney is doing this right now. Meanwhile the High Command is pushing for the party to...."move on." If this issue of Donald Trump's leading the Republican Party is not addressed now....and enough time passes....then they will be able to say that it's too close to the election. That's the plan...that's Trump's plan.
I understand why Cheney and others do this....for common sense would say that any of those issues....and many more....should be enough to say good-bye to Donald Trump forever.....but that is not only not how it works....it makes the situation much worse....for two reasons....first....concentrating on the latest issue essentially releases Trump from dozens of previous issues where he has proved himself unfit to be President....or to lead the Republican Party....as if these things never happened! Second....this new Republican Party is so in chains by Trump....that his 2015 prophesy is proving true....that he could shoot somebody in the middle of Fifth Avenue....and would not lose any voters. None of these issues....by themselves....will break his stranglehold on the party....but a relentless full-orbed mission of reminding people what the entire past four years were really like....would not so easily be erased by the latest comments by Lindsey Graham or Kevin McCarthy or Mark Meadows.
I admit a problem here....for there has been so many lies and so many mental disorders on full display....dozens of them.....that saturation of outrage has long ago set in....in other words.....Donald Trump has been such a complete disaster.....consistently.....over four years.....that the more continuously egregious things that he does.....actually benefits him.....for it is difficult and near impossible to keep even a small percentage of them in the minds of the American public....but we have to try....because we need freed from this overwhelming cult of personality....able to think for ourselves once again....and maybe to see our own culpability in what we see before us every day....what we have become....and what is surely ahead.
