There is an awful lot of desperation to keep Trump in the WH.

[Progressive Jones]

Aside from the obvious power loss for the GOP, there is possibly much more at stake.

I believe that a lot of people will fall without the Trump administration to protect against investigations.

I believe that a lot of scandals will drop soon after Trump's removal from office.

1. I would love the kompromat to drop

yes

[TwilightZone]

4. I'm not sure there's anything there.

I think they do this stuff out of their own self-interest and greed. Everyone seems to assume that someone has something on them for them to act this way, but I think they're mostly just soulless, power-hungry assholes.

[Skittles]

9. repukes in general are selfish, greedy assholes, yes

but to go from thoroughly trashing Trump to going overboard kissing his ass? I'm thinking something else.

[TwilightZone]

17. Yeah, McCain died.

He needed a new hero. I'm not sure it's any more complicated than that.

Could be something else, certainly, but I think he morphs to whatever his "hero" wants, whether it's McCain or Trump. Trump wasn't going to accept him unless he did and said exactly what Trump wanted. I think he's so desperate to have that relationship that he did whatever it took. Of course, Trump trashed him anyway, but a lot of abusive relationships work in a similar fashion.

2. Lindsey aka lady g gave 500k to dotard's defense fund. There's only one reason for that

[42bambi]

6. That was exactly my first thought as well. nt

[peggysue2]

18. This is the same Lindsey Graham crying, begging for election money?

What is going on with these people? And where did the windfall come from, Senator Graham???

[phylny]

3. As I've been saying for awhile now,

I hope I'm alive for the movie version.

[Hekate]

10. Damn right. And I want to see it in an actual theater!

At my age (over 70) I have a shorter fuse for gratification, so hurry up with those indictments, investigations, perp walks, and actual prison terms! And the movie! Dammit.

[Jarqui]

5. I just hope a bunch of innocent Americans don't have to die

over Trump's dangerous deceit tonight.

I think he's killed enough people with Covid.

[Generic Brad]

7. Even Putin is running for the exit

There is a lot of elephant dung about to hit the fan.

[C_U_L8R]

8. Desperate to stay out of jail.

[Brainfodder]

11. Brainwashed fools really got worked over hard hard hard....

For some it's their entire lives in the bubble?

You almost could feel sorry for them?

[ananda]

12. Just the scandals and crimes we already have..

would be enough to bring down all,of them,
including traitors like McConnell, Graham,
and Ron Johnson!

[qdouble]

13. Make no mistake, they will eagerly abandon Trump.

Most don't like him, they are just afraid of him and the zealots. Once Trump loses power, they will slowly start pretending they never really supported him.

[smirkymonkey]

14. +1000

I believe this as well. Once he is out of power, they will turn on him like lightening. I actually think his base will fade away as well.

[qdouble]

16. Yep...

That's why reasoning with most Trump supporters seemed to almost never work. They weren't blind to Trump's vileness.

When Trump's supporters are compared to Nazis, it's not an exaggeration. The problem is that people think that Nazis were some type of different breed of human, when they were regular people just like you and I. Once you start trading ethics for power, you can go down some very dark paths.

[Maeve]

15. I want to see a lot of them get prison terms

But I'll accept their disgrace and bankruptcy
