    So are they going to throw officers in the brig because they made tactical mistakes? I'm getting a feeling (maybe it's hopium) that these people are like a dog catching a car.

      a dog catching a car

      The Trump Train is going at ramming speed. But even if the 2026 elections are a gimmie for the dems - never underestimate their fantastical abilities in fucking up. My wild guesses are that "patriotism" or some other loser concept will be the dem party's quasi-official motto for 2026 and that they'll have another big loser in that they'll continue to try to get "reasonable" republicans to vote for them.

          entirely possible. Their campaign for nearly a decade now has been "We're not Trump. Vote for us!" Their campaign money scarecow can't run for reelection anymore and be used to terrify voters into the voting lines. I'm rather curious in what way will they redesign themselves over the next four years.
