- Reposted by Ken MeyersonI think one thing people forget in the whole Trumpian elections storyline is it's never been just one thing. The J6/Stop The Steal model was a bunch of people trying many different wild schemes at once. It's chaos. They throw everything at the wall and hopes something sticks a bit.

When politicians knowingly engage in grave ethical wrongdoing, that should permanently end their political careers. Being "talented" should not override that.
