Wow! I appreciate and miss "true" journalism like this. Doing some digging, looking for parallels, and sharing what you find. For all of the shots that they take the judiciary, state and local law enforcement, FBI etc. are rising to the occasion more than many. These institutions even with all their flaws are a backbone to a civil and democratic society. Our country will depend on them for months to come.
Four big wonders I have:
- What will the 6 of 9 at the Supreme Court do. There are three that I think we can say are clearly focused on following law and precedence. What will the other 6 do?
- Will the Democratic Party keep together as a cohesive group under President Biden's leadership and modeling these past 4 years or will they fall into the traps of past debacles (caused somewhat by the Middle East) of 68, 72, & 80 where they failed to stick together?
- Will Independents (moderates, liberals, & "real" conservatives) stick together and will moderate Republicans finally pass the test and join them come November?
- I believe that many Americans will no longer be able to hold their nose and vote for "that man" and the "extreme maga-ites" this November and that President Biden will receive a double-figure voter victory. If true, and the writing is on the wall come September, will "that man" and the "extreme maga-ites" turn to violence before and at election time?
A clarifying essay, and the most salient point, to explain the rise of Trumpism, is the necessary support from mainstream conservatives, whose capitulation to Trump has been near complete. The revolt of the conservatives after Jan. 6 lasted all of one night (Jan. 6).

So much is on hold in the balance!
Elections are decided by the independent voter, in which case trump will lose badly,,
the problem you have is trump will try to make as much chaos as possible as he did on Jan 6th .
How do I know this ?
Stupid people repeat their mistakes.
