trump has conned so much of the Country that is soon going to find that out. I suspect a small (?) portion of them will stay loyal. But for many of the others, when they suffer from the regime's cumulative effects and the impacts get personal, might a large percentage of them realize they've been had, be mad as hell about it, and join the rest of us in resisting? Can we build the numbers and stamina to show the regime--and the rest of the world--that we really don't do kings in this Country. As he loses support, wouldn't that come from within as well as the outside?
With the Rs and majority "Supreme" court complicit in the takeover, I can only hope that We the People can come together, truly drain the disgusting swamp he's put in place, and build a new democracy based on what we've learned.
