I know people who are appalled and outraged by the things Trump does, and think he is a horrible person and..........will vote for him because.......

Children in cages were okay with them?

Shithole countries?

Botched responses to disasters?

Destroying long-held alliances?

Pandering to Putin?

Paying off hookers?

Declaring love for dictators?

Ukraine?

Retaliation against whistleblowers?

Stacking the courts with extremists?

Firing on peaceful protesters?

Massive corruption and willful destruction of government agencies?

White supremacy?

And the genocide that has been the response to the pandemic?

All that was fine with the federalist society. But the threat to delay the election was a bridge too far?

That was their rubicon?

I don’t think Mr Calabreezi was suddenly flipped by this one act of Trump, out of a hundred similar acts before. I think he sees the tsunami of disgrace headed for Trump’s enablers, and is trying to duck and cover.
