I know that people (myself included) have made the mistake in the past of thinking that Trump was finished, i.e, the Access Hollywood tape, but I really think he is done. His 2024 campaign is a bigger flop than Howard the Duck.

It's not even about politics anymore ; Trump has made it officially A-okay to discard any political discourse, any pretense at intellectual honesty. Lying is strength, debating is for the weak, argumentation is the hallmark of effete morons. The point now is attack, degrade, dehumanize and belittle the opposition.
And yeah, the tea party was already there and hypocrisy was everywhere, it's always been part of the game, moving the goalposts. Now one side is still trying to explain that the ball is supposed to go on the other side of the field while the other ones are playing calvinball on steroids.
There's no coming back from that, not for a good long while. Trump has made it so the hooligans in the bleachers can join the team and are now considered legit players, and they're very proud of it. You can put as many Trumps as you like behind bars, but the game is irremediably fucked.

maybe i’ll stop calling him a traitor now. maybe not.
This tweet has all the features I hate of social media type journalism. The misuse/overuse of the word "breaking" (otherwise see: "Exclusive") the frantic all caps nature of the tweet. It has no deeper information to offer on what may end up being a nothing moment. I get that you're just trying to comment on the event itself and I'm not trying to jab at you over your link, it just felt a little abrasive to read.
"Breaking News" is the new "Very Special Episode".
I wonder if the Orange Menace is going to throw a temper tantrum over Pence testifying?
Of course he is. In these things you can always count on a few things. Trump will throw a temper tantrum, the justice department will do nothing. No body will go to prison, and nothing will happen.
not really the committee but it's still bringing a smile to my face:
