    So the play here is to just give R enough rope to hang themselves with? Let them take a sledgehammer to the rule of law and then run again on the platform of “at least we’re not the ones who took a sledgehammer to the rule of law”? Do they genuinely think that that will work with a voter base with no object permanence? I didn’t know this was possible, but shit is getting sadder by the second.

      It didn’t work before. Everyone who voted for Trump seemed to forget his first term and the damage done, including harm to those voters themselves. “This time will be different” is the stupidest take ever.
