Does anyone else feel like the Congressional Investigation bled

into the Amber Heard trial? I think for the masses, this is perfect as they respond to the sordid details of a poopy crybaby in the WH bungling his moment of being carried through a triumphal arch to the Capitol. A triumphant flop.

That makes me feel a sense of elation about Trump that I haven't felt since 2016.

Anyone else?

They ate it up on avocado toast. That is what we must hope happens to TFG.

Scandal has brought down people on our side when there was no real scandal there (Franken, Clinton) even ridicule (Dean).

The one time we defeated them good it was the utter contempt for Palin. She singlehandedly brought McCain down with her silly National Enquirer lifestyle.

Mockery and ridicule can kill a candidate's chances overnight. Being a laughingstock. There is a line and Trump has so far crossed it unscathed, but the cumulative drip drip will get him. He pees on mattresses and throws food tantrums. It can't get worse. A baby tried to takeover as "little boots." He's a real danger. But laughter carries a great sting. The Irish called it a kind of curse to mock a man. Powerful weapon.

The Greeks would say "hubris." He brought down his country because there were not enough crowds at his rallies. VANITY is his fatal flaw that will destroy him in the end.

They will soon be denying they voted for him. Or only for the policies not the man type of garbage.

Evidence: How many Germans admit to having Nazis in their direct families? They kind of don't mention it since the war. It's too shameful. That will happen to the MAGATs who will deny their OrangeChrist faster than the Apostle Peter after the Last Supper. We'll see rows of MAGA merch at the Goodwill at giveaway prices.

The tipping point is so close.

DeSantis will be the next cult leader, IMO.
