I must admit watching the republican senate yell at Paul Ryan for being dumb has been very enjoyable.

Paul Ryan is almost certainly safe, but his district is only R +6 iirc. A big enough wave would put him in jeopardy.

He's a strong incumbent and popular in his district though, so probably wouldn't happen even in the case where random R +6-7 districts get knocked off.

oh yeah he's totally safe. it's just a dream. even if the senate yells at him it won't make him contrite.

Holy poo poo. He is shook as gently caress.

His entire shtick is at risk. Instead of liberal students throwing a tantrum every time he was scheduled to speak somewhere because of bigoted statements he made, administrators can reject his visit because of his views on pedophilia and conservatives won't have a leg to stand on to criticize that decision. Milo's avenues for trolling are going to be severely limited, and as a result his worth to the right-wing is going to tank.

Again, this assumes that they didn't want judicial chaos. I don't know if they ever wanted that version of the travel ban to succeed. I believe they just wanted to drum up chaos and further divide the nation in an effort to destabilize it. After all, destabilization is literally what Bannon has said on record that he wants (and considering Donald works for a foreign enemy, destabilization works for his bosses too).

Trump and Bannon are not complex machiavellian political agents.

Trump is an out of shape idiot who watches TV all day and eats McDonalds.
Bannon is an alcoholic weirdo.

There is no greater plan at work here; you're ascribing far too much competence to an administration staffed by people who work in the dark because they don't know how to turn on lights.

nah, public universities still have to be careful with the hecklers veto thing because technically advocating for man/boy love isn't illegal. it does make it less likely that conservative college groups will invite him, though.

We have a party in power ran by people who are profoundly incompetent, and an opposition party saying "Yeah they're doing bad things, but the worst part is that they have no respect for the process!"

There's no easy way out of this situation, and things aren't going to turn around when Trump leaves.

kelly has probably had input so it won't be nearly as much of a hilarious clusterfuck but that means it'll also allow syrian refugees in (because kelly knows our vetting process is hilariously long and arduous) and simply restrict immigration quotas or something like that.
