Why do you suppose trump told his rally goers he didn’t need votes? Quite a few times. The bomb threats to the dem strongholds, and the little secret between Mike Johnson and him. We have to move on, of course. To pretend we’re dealing with a normal situation is denying the truth. We are dealing with a ruthless bunch who will stop at nothing to gain & keep power. Our normal strategies won’t work.
