"The Comey indictment sends a message. No matter how implausible the case, no matter how many times a case fails, the Trump regime will continue to use the United States government to pursue the people Donald has decided are his enemies.

"Trump is a failed dictator — but he is still president, and he’s propped up by stooges like Blanche who are ready and willing to make good on his most rage-fueled and irrational desires. The next two years, therefore, may be among the most trying of the slow-motion disaster that has been the Trump Era."

"the two share a late-regime obsession with rewriting history and building monuments to justify their utterly failed rule.

Hence the increasingly frantic effort of a crew of cronies, now being led by Blanche, to validate Trump’s victimhood thesis."

"So it must be all the more frustrating for him to witness the now-undeniable fact that his show has jumped the shark. ...

While America, and the world, is lucky that Trump — a far, far lazier man than the quite lazy Hitler — seems to be running out of steam well before he can hope to work horrors anything close to those achieved by the Nazi dictator," (continued in /12)

"Trump is clearly losing his mind — his cognitive abilities have been deteriorating in front of cameras with ever greater rapidity at least since the last presidential campaign. But the media personality in the White House retains his instinctual understanding of what plays, and what bombs, on TV."

"Indeed, Morris noted that Trump’s approval rating on the economy is so low it ‘literally broke the scale of this graph on my data portal.’ …

In the face of Trump’s growing unpopularity, the Republicans are changing not their unpopular policies but the rules of elections, clearly hoping to game the system to win elections no matter how unpopular they have become."

"There is no point in trying to predict Donald Trump's demise; he has proven adaptable and fluid, again and again. But his Iran adventure (coming as it does with a partnership with Netanyahu) has put him into a position where he must sacrifice the coalition that has kept him in power."

"Our idiot president 'can’t even surrender right.' … Over the weekend Paul Krugman quipped that Donald Trump “can’t even surrender right.”

This is correct. …

Mike Brock doesn't accept Tucker Carlson's apology for "misleading" his followers to support Trump:
