As an old chess player, I am always hesitant to inform my enemy as to what I have planned to defeat them until I get to the point where there’s absolutely nothing they can do to stop their impending doom. Now I am certain that Republicans cannot do a damn thing to help or stop themselves from making a fatal error they will make in the coming days.
Of course they will acquit Trump because they saw what he did to Jeff Sessions and they’re all cowards except maybe Mitt Romney. I want them to make this mistake because as soon as they make it, they are marrying Trump for the next four years at the very least, every damn one of them.
It is difficult for me to impart how much glee this fills me with because when they do it, they will seal their fate of political extinction.
Of course Republicans are all dumb AF and the problem with stupid people is that they don’t have the intelligence to know when they are making a terrible mistake. If you aren’t sure about this, I provide you with the evidence of Mitch McConnell. For all of his terrible flaws and outright evil, Mitch does understand that if they do not rid themselves of the cancer of Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene, it will kill them as a viable political party.
Please understand, this is not speculation or wishful thinking, this is a fact that will come to fruition.
The reason I suspect that Cyrus Vance and the DC US Attorney have not published the indictments for Trump is two-fold. The first is the recent Justice Department policy still in effect set down by Bill Barr that no indictments can be sought without the consent of the Attorney General for any administration officials. Merrick Garland has yet to be confirmed as AG but he will be in the coming days.
The second important reason to wait is purely political and that is to allow Republicans to make the mistake of acquitting Trump again. When they do and the criminal indictments start coming down, they are going to have to defend their acquittal in every election they ever run in again. Some of you will remember that all of Nixon’s toadies were run out of office head first in the very next election by an angry electorate.
And the Trump base is going to remain loyal like the cult they have morphed into but the ones with any grasp on reality are going to remember what happened on the 6th and like a battered woman, they will turn on their abusers who have done nothing but gaslighted them for years now. You’ve seen some of the interviews with former Qpublicans who have woken up that they were duped by the Big Lie. Those are just the ones willing to admit that they were fooled. Most of the others don’t have the courage to admit they were wrong but in their hearts, they know it.
Thousands more will follow I promise you.
The reason that matters so much is because even a single percentage point of change is enough to get an avalanche of Democrats elected in 2022. Mitch understands this perfectly which is why he said the Qnuts were cancer. The reason why this is even more important is that Mitch is 78-years-old. He’ll be 84 when his term is up. This will most certainly be Mitch’s swan song in politics if he lives that long. Mitch wants schools and interstates named for him back in Kentucky and that means he is now concerned about his legacy.
I don’t think he can rehab his deeds enough to get so much as an alley behind a brothel named for him these days but what we heard from Mitch was his truth and strangely enough, I agree with him on this. The Qpublicans are cancer and the longer they flourish in the age after Trump, the more certain their demise because the truth has power and that makes them powerless.
Thankfully none of the Republicans who will acquit Trump will listen to sage advice even from Mitch because they are all gutless cowards. The collective competence of Democrats under Biden’s administration isn’t going to help Republicans either but what is even more important is the civil actions by Smartmatic and Dominion are going to be a devastating blow to the right-wing propaganda mills like Fox, OAN and Newsmax.
They of course have no ideology other than making money and once Murdoch’s lawyers had the ‘lawyer talk’ with him and informed him that Lou Dobbs, Hannity, Bartiromo and Jeanine Pirro had exposed him to billions in civil penalties, Murdoch moved with haste to rid himself of the worst Trump sycophant in his employ, Lou Dobbs.
I can say with a high degree of certainty that Murdoch’s lawyers told him to get rid of all of them but he is a stubborn old man. He does understand that it’s going to cost him over a billion to settle these cases. He has the money of course but he will put his own cost/benefit calculus onto the others and if it cost him more than he will make from them, he will cut bait or let Lachlan do it.
I so wish the attorneys for Smartmatic and Dominion did not care about the money because if they took these cases to trial, a jury assessing damages could bankrupt Newscorp. Murdoch’s lawyers already know this and have told Murdoch. He’s just stewing about what he is going to have to do.
The beautiful thing about this is that the days of Fox playing fast and loose with the truth are over. The insurrection they helped lead is going to have so many chickens come home to roost that Fox’s market share and share prices are going to keep going down as it becomes the favorite target for spry attorneys wanting to sue a very rich target.
This fills my heart with even more glee than watching the Qpublicans acquitting Trump and showing the country what they really are. No longer the party of Reagan, now the party of morons like Marjorie Taylor Greene. They won’t be just shooting themselves in the foot when they do it, they will blow both legs off and I for one am going to savor watching them do it the way I savor some Baltimore blue-crab cakes.
