I’m really angry about this whole Trump situation. One of the many reasons why I’m angry is whatever justice we may get for Trump will happen after it’s moot. All the numerous other things he should have been impeached and convicted for will fall into the memory hole and he will serve out his entire term.
Nothing epitomizes this more than someone I know who voted for Trump this year, and now agrees with me he’s “gotta go.” This enrages me. But for Trump self-owning at the very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, VERY end of his administration, he could easily come back in 2024 and WIN.
So, Republicans have gotten everything they wanted from a Trump Administration and now that it’s over, they can cut Trump loose. The whole thing is value free other than the plutocrat tax cut and young hack MAGA judges.
What’s more, Republicans could get it into their head that it would be politically valuable for them to have witnesses this time around for no other reason than to make it difficult for anything else to happen in Washington during the early days of the Biden Administration.
It’s all very frustrating. And leaves one with a sense of political disorientation and cognitive dissidence. It leaves you asking, “Is that it?”
And, sadly, it appears that really is it.
