(10,252 posts)in the face of disaster, evil, fear, negative emotions, etc. We need to stay calm and focused on electing progressives at all levels of gov. We are more effective when we can look stupidity and evil in the face, and yet stay calm and hold our ground. Most (if not all) of Traitor Trump's antics are distractions and drama-acting-out to get attention. The truly dangerous evil are the criminal corporate republicans and fossil fuel industry, who easily fear-monger stupid, bigoted and fearful people. We can defeat this degenerate bunch of robber barons. YES WE CAN!

Now he has power. And we know what he does with power. He runs it into the ground, like his businesses that went bankrupt. Like the loss of a billion dollars in one year. These things all were known before the election. Over 60 million didn't care. They didn't care. Now we have this circus. This Putin-managed circus.

He has had to walk back on most of what he is saying.
We're not nearly as impressionable as we were when Bush was selected.
Unlike Trump, we remember history
Unlike Trump, we honor our Constitution.
Don't give up. We, The People, are far more united than you think
If he wins, it will only be a temporary situation. We will win it all back.

(81,302 posts)To answer your question - I don't think so. Haven't seen any, yet.
Those who flip, and start sounding more "reasonable" and reality-attached, must have concluded that their seats are in jeopardy in the upcoming midterms. And that change of heart will sustain itself until/unless they get reelected, then they'll march immediately back into the fold again.
