I suspect this might not have as big an impact on the mid-terms as we all hope for.

I hope so. His behavior is something the people really need to be awake for and cognizant of.

The more disengaged voters ignore him, the more it hands him.

Nearly half of Americans strongly disapprove of Trump’s second term, yet 23% strongly approve of actions that blatantly undermine our democracy and core American values. To stand so fervently behind what most see as harmful is not just political disagreement, it’s a moral failure. Support like that rarely sees the harm it causes, that is until it lands at their own door.
