"We've got him now, boys!" the journalists and @lawfare people declare, as Trump jumps over the county line again in the Confederate-themed car.
I'm 100% on board with documenting this stuff, but wish we could stop pretending it would erode the President's base of support.https://twitter.com/joshtpm/status/1175135867268227072 …

Stop trying to make Watergate happen. Absorb the bitter lesson of the Mueller report and every Trump scandal you were convinced would be dispositive.

This inability of key establishment figures to adapt to a new context reinforces my feeling that Trump is on a path to re-election. Which ties in to that other "silver linings of climate change dooming us all" thread.

Forgive me I just came from a rally where thousands of kids risked punishment from school to protest climate change denial and I’m in a hopeful mood about this country. Maybe if adults concerned about democracy went on strike we wouldn’t be having this discussion.

I'm glad you're in a hopeful mood. I am frustrated with tactics that I think are ineffective, which is not the same as trying to puncture anyone's hope for change. It's a form of hope, too

All resistance is ineffective until it isn’t, and some things take longer than others. I wouldn’t discount the work journalists and think tanks have been doing. They’re there to call out malfeasance and they have been doing it. Nadler and Pelosi have far more to answer for.
