(14,173 posts)But we all know that the election will not be "true". Moscow Mitch has done hardly anything to secure them against a repeat of Trump trolls from both in the US and from Russia, as well as Israel and other places friendly to a RW world hegemony. Add to that voter suppression, gerrymandering and all the other tactics employed and approved by Republican state governors.
It is not about if Trump can win 51%, its if he can get to a reasonable enough margin that he can be pushed over the line by the cheating "bump".
I think I read people well, maybe I'm wrong, but in this instance I think the Mooch is not moot. I think the one thing he is sincere on is his belief that Trump is still succeeding...not with who we look at, but who Trump looks at.
And yes, the Mooch loves Trumps corporate tax breaks, but any Republican would do the same. Trump is not special in that regard. It is precisely BECAUSE Scaramucci is so loyal to the ideals of Republicanism and corporatism, and wants those ideals to ultimately succeed, that he wants Trump out. Trump, he rightly sees, will be a millstone for Republicans in time, and so too their agenda.
