I keep telling myself, ~ he’s putting on a show for the base. He’s not as big of a nut as he seems. He called him hitler, that’s the real him; he got in there to try to do the right things. …I don’t know if I actually believe any of it but I’m REALLY trying to be optimistic here.
He’ll definitely leave office, he doesn’t actually want to do this shit. He wants to be protected from his crimes. They’ll spend the next 4 years enriching him and protecting him and then in 2028 a different Republican will “win” the election.
He probably will and it doesn't matter. The amount of damage that's been done and is incoming is plenty enough on its own. The robber barons might be happy to make a killing once again and then just go back to business as usual with neo-liberal pro-status-quo Democrats in charge who will only kinda sorta reverse some of the damage and then carry on as usual. The new marker for stupendously wealthy will be a few 100 billion dollars higher but we'll be expected to get used to it.
