Remember at the end of summer 2022 when the liberal-media complex re-convinced itself that the authorities would finally arrest Trump? This was on account of the top-secret documents he took to Mar-a-Lago. I especially recall the "Mueller She Wrote" podcast running a victory lap on Twitter. At home for the holidays, I also caught prime-time MSNBC for the first time in forever. They had moved on to 24/7 coverage of Trump's failure to release his 2015-2020 tax returns. I feel like I need a background in anthropology to fully grasp what's happening with the confidence in Trump's arrest. Something is being activated in the liberal brain that approximates a diehard faith, not unlike a teleological belief in the Rapture. How do MSNBC viewers continue to feel satisfied and confident in Trump's arrest despite an endless deferral of the act? It's like Bart losing his mind at Kamp Krusty when he learns his hero isn't there. Rocking back and forth, he tells himself: "Krusty is coming. Krusty is coming. Krusty is coming." Is this not also making liberals insane?

    I mean one is "can you clone Hillary Clinton and replace her after a secret execution" and the other is "how does law and accountability really work for the powerful." These aren't the same.

      I'm not going to hammer on this point anymore, but you are mistaking a question for an answer. It goes like this.

      Q: How does law and accountability really work for the powerful?

      A: They are cloned and replaced by the deep state cabal. (QAnon)

      A: They are held to account by the meritocracy and rules-based order. (Liberals)
