    At this point, the reaction (and non-reaction) of the general public has been enough to show me that there is tacit support. Each group has their “red line,” I imagine, where they’ll suddenly give a shit when their gardener gets deported or whatever… But somehow we haven’t hit that line yet for most people, and it’s fucking depressing.

      It’s incredibly depressing. But somehow there are still consequences for actual actions. We’re so dispersed there hasn’t been a point where someone has said they are going to oust him, and if they succeed whoever helps support won’t get hung as a traitor.

      Even if someone were to assassinate Trump, no one is organized to replace him. Vance isn’t any better, nor anyone really in line. We can’t just cut off Trump, we need to cut out the entire rotted party and treat every single one of them as traitors.
