16. I don't know about the Republican congressmen and women who seem to be stubbornly

hanging in there with him, but for the dyed in the wool tRump fans, I think nothing will cause them to abandon him. They have been conditioned to distrust anyone but him. He has poisoned their minds to dismiss anything the media finds on him that conflicts with what they believe to be true about him. I don't think video of him having sex with underaged prostitutes in a fleabag motel would convince them. He could talk trash about his devoted fans in a hidden camera set up and they'd excuse it somehow. The scene from "A Face in the Crowd" where Lonesome Roads goes off on a rant about his rube listeners won't be happening. We can hope, but even IF it happened, tRump would convince them he was "only joking" and they'd buy it. He has already groomed them and they are his.

Nope, our only hope is that little by little, the only slightly convinced tRump voters will fall away from his spell. That will leave only the hard core (like the core of a pimple) to stick with him. That is not enough to constitute a quorum as they say. We will significantly out number them, so our task is to get people out to vote in massive, mind numbing numbers. And they need to be very vocal to our congress critters. VERY. Make their presence and opinions known. The core tRumpies can have their say, but with small numbers, it won't matter. They will barely raise a ripple in the pond.
