Perhaps We Owe Thanks to The Mad President

2. sadly, i have to disagree.

the media already paints him as a singular personality, unique in many respects.

the ties to russia, the personal enrichment, the tax return secrecy, etc., all are painted as relating to donnie himself and not to the republican party or the right-wing ideology.

people like ann coulter have long succeeded in pulling the country ever to the right with their brand of crazy extremism. not necessarily because people agree with them, but their craziness and extremism makes room for other republicans to be slightly less extreme and appear normal by comparison.

i fear much the same may happen with donnie. when he's finally gone, one way or another, the remaining republicans will be portrayed as sane and normal by comparison, which will free them up to be as horrible as ever in terms of policy.
