Hate to be the buzz killer, but the fact that the majority of Americans hate Trump and in no way guarantees a positive outcome. In fact, their despair can lead to more desperate, scorched-earth measures on their part.

Majority has (limited) value only in democracy. Hence a desperate, determined, armed minority will work to destroy it. This is where we at right now. A success in midterms (the best case scenario) will not solve the conflict, only change its parameters.

There will be no correction or redemption. America will not go back to the Obama-years Eden (a rank fantasy). Mueller will not take Trump down. #GOP will not concede. NRA will not surrender. This country might have to be undone to be properly redone.

The only way for them to win is to perpetuate and escalate conflict. In democracy they lose, in war (they think) they win. People from the Balkans might be familiar with this political strategy. It drove (and still does) Serbian nationalism. Indeed, it drives all nationalism.

They will go all the way. come what may. They will not back down because the streets are full of people who are against them. The ongoing conflict has advanced beyond a political solution.
