is there any data to back up trump being super duper important to the base? i think there was a lot of wincing and voting along party lines on both sides this election. i don't get the impression that there are that many zealots who would protest if the republican president was replaced with a republican president.

Is there any evidence that Trumps hardcore base actually matters long term? They can't be pandered to by the GOP forever.
I think they matter a lot to the GOP. The Democrats don't have to appeal to them at all - and couldn't anyway - but there's enough of them in the GOP winning coalition that they need to keep them voting. Losing the Trump base would depress R turnout enough to hurt them in midterms, etc.

they know impeaching trump means they lose the house and senate in 2018, no way they do it, theyd probably even lose a good chunk of state legislatures

Like, there's probably a better chance of this happening than there ever has been, but it's still lottery jackpot odds at best.

Also I tuned out of that massive post (and avoided the Twitter thread when I saw it earlier) the instant I saw the words 'game theory'. This has been a longstanding rule for me and it has yet to steer me wrong.

America doesn't work, pal. The government is crap and doesn't work. They won't save us, they'll burn us and gently caress off to some place better.

All we can do is organized large scale protests and hope that, if those fails, death comes quick.

the 2016 republican primary

you can't really map primaries onto the general public. trump got himself a cult of personality and got them to vote for him while the regulars split the remaining vote five or more ways between them. i just think this forum has a tendency to go all the way over to one position. at one time it was "hillary cannot lose" and now it is "nothing matters at all and trump will suspend elections and be king until ivanka takes over for him and the congress will let it all happen and the media will praise him."

there's sometimes a lack of nuance around these parts. republican senators are already turning on him. there is no way republican congresspeople are sitting around going "yeah, a war with china is okay i guess. whatever he wants to do, you know?" this is not good for them.

By the end of Trump's presidency, he will have wiped the rear end with the rear end with the constitution and the American working class. There is no hope for them or any of us. Our only hope is for a swift death.

what are you going to school for? if you're doing humanities just memorize parts of classic stories and enjoy your life as a bard in a nuclear blasted wasteland.

If you're doing science just learn how to build explosives or make meth.

never said any of that dumb hyperbole

devoted trump supporters make up enough of the republican base where an impeachment would have significant consequences for the party at-large in future elections by voting together with democrats to remove trump from office, you aren't going to be able to spin that as anything short of a massive betrayal to those supporters

people here don't want trump in office and are massively inflating the chances of a successful impeachment preceding which is unprecedented

He is right

The recounts were false hope.

The electorals are false hopes.

Impeachment is a false hope.

The only hope is that, when Trump kills us all, he does it quickly.
