I think they can spend 2017 draining out as much of their agenda they can get out of Trump.

I think Republicans will be attached to Trump for a long time to come. I'd speculate they'll suffer consequences from voters if they don't.

Yeah, the no-brake turn on this has been absolutely astounding.

How will this play or is it playing in the ordinary everyday people that support him though?
The ones that can't afford ordinary healthcare for example but say you're a Marxist or a commie if you say it's a good idea, for example?

Watching Alex Jones take over a Young Turks show kinda makes the whole year worth it. Modern life is utterly surreal.

LV referenced Alex Jones in another thread earlier and I was sure he was a musician. Now... I'm guessing not so much?

Alex Jones is amazing. He'll says something sane like "we need to address the militarization of law enforcement" and follow it up with "because chem trails are making them Jewish"
"The fatal flaw of all revolutionaries is that they know how to tear things down but don't have a f**king clue about how to build anything."
