    The level of corruption is staggering.

      The sheer volume dulls your senses to it if you're not staying alert.

        Dull senses, sharp senses whats it matter if the degrees of freedom for your actionable choices with news information dont affect the winning coalition? You're not even part of the selectorate

      Trump's popular base is still with him, or am I mistaken.

      I suppose his base considers people like her as an enemy and all means are legitimate in this is vs them war.

      If that be so, this is what most Americans wanted. You and I would be outliers.

        Trump's base is looking more and more like a cracked pot that can now longer hold together if moved or even poked that hard.

        Original Trump or Die types like MTG and Tucker Carlson have split hard, others are raising concerns where previously the line was toed tight.

        This news won't move the needle much, but larger issues like obvious corruption, Epstein files (still, ffs), the Iran NotWar and foreign policy in general are all exerting pressure.

        November will be interesting, a time to see the resolution between cooking the electoral books to gin up the appearance of support and the increasing signs that chunks of the old base won't show in sufficient numbers to maintain control.

          The ones that split mostly did because it’s not profitable anymore, one podcaster that has been faithful had layoffs due to losing listeners

          His basket (of deplorables) overfloweth. So many people who care not for the country or what's happening at all, but who have been totally sold into the anti-government Reaganism & conspiracy & anti-socialness being sold for decades and hyped up forever on Fox News & now far worse viral vectors.

          The new rebels don't succeed, don't leave: they just work to destroy & rot away every institution, turn it into sick farce & joke, erode the nation whole 250 years latter. Because rich people cannot stand a state that endorses the welfare of the people.

        Most Americans didn't vote for Trump.

          Not sure why this is downvoted. Objectively true. Less than 50% of the popular vote, and that's just voting Americans.

    glad to see they're prioritizing only the most prolific and dangerous criminals in the nation
