Is this...starting to matter? Are they all turning away from this except Trump?

Republican voters knew this difference between Trump and the field during the primaries and still willingly chose Trump. If these incidents continue, it could be a problem for Trump by reminding everyone else, but Republicans decided they could live with this a long time ago.

It's a real person in Michigan, apparently. Now, whether that's the person who was actually driving remains to be seen, and we're probably better off just waiting for the release of the name of the guy in custody, since witchhunting isn't gonna get us anywhere.

Considering I'm convinced that a good part of his base are those just want to see the world burn sort of fuckers that support him out of pure cynicism and sociopathy for the chaos he causes on a daily basis they probably figure he's doing his job just fine.

I think you're giving said part of his base waaay too much credit. These are not people who have considered, even remotely, the consequences of their actions. Especially how it would affect others. Their sports team won, and now we're burning sofas in the parking lot.

As someone who has seen you tangle with them many, many times, you deserve to vent.

Realising NOW that the alt right are donkey brained neo-nazis now means you need to own up to when you didn’t believe it.

Yea, that blurry snapchat of the arrest definitely makes it look like a younger guy. Maybe a relative, maybe sold recently and the title hadn't changed yet. But we'll likely have more information tomorrow.

No I get that that's basically it. The fact that this is a thing though as others have said...but no problem for the U.S government apparently. I still think a lot of them do understand the consequences of their actions and that's the entire point though. If it's not about sheer spite for them than what is it?

I also don't expect him to be in sort sort of stupid as all gently caress beef with somebody in his own party or a private citizen on some news station this week so there's that slim edge working in Ryan's favor over Trump too.

I understand that (even thought it's clear which way you're "supposed" to read it), which is why I called it mealy-mouthed, but Trump can't even clear this low bar.
