Long term thinking does not lead me to recommend martyrdom for Trump. He has earned more than enough of my enmity for it to feel right, but it's more important to destroy his movement at this point. The Union has to stop "losing the peace" to finally put this festering insurgency to rest.

When he dies, many of them will refuse to believe it. Some of them believe JFK is still alive. Not JFK Jr., JFK.

I think the idea is that when their leader is gone, they’ll scurry back to their sewers. Which is likely given they’re weak as f..k

It is hilarious to see you try to take the moral high ground on anyone. You can not begin to grasp what moral behavior is.
