uhhh..... thats not subtle. The Ukraine president is in a terrible bind because even if he concludes that Trump is 100% out in January 2021 (not a certainty), there's still plenty of time for Trump to hurt Ukraine either directly or indirectly. Sure, he can quietly ask Senators for help in influencing Trump, but now that its out in the open and he got his military aid anyway, he's got to smile, bow out, and not do anything to hurt Trump.

I do think this is bad enough that it will semi-permanently reduce his long term approval by another 1 or even 2%, even if late next year that particular cohort of voters cant quite remember why they decided they hate him now. Right on schedule too, about every 4-6 months he does something else to drag his disapproval up higher, and we were due for another major event.

Like everyone else that works with Trump, the Ukranian President is left holding the bag.

The problem that Trump is running into that I think makes it different this time is that he turns military funding into a domestic and international political issue. If a country doesn’t play ball, no money for jets which hurts the MIC. It also means that the source of funding becomes a more hotly charged political issue because Democrats aren’t going to be happy to provide funding that Trump will then use as a bludgeon against Democrats. The MIC knows it’s got a good situation going and won’t do anything to rock the boat. We will see if this immediately translates to alarm bells going off in the MIC and applying pressure to team R not to gently caress up the $900 billion per year in funding.

There is going to be a coffee table book one day once this nightmare is, I don’t want to save “over”, it will never be over, but at least not as active as it was before, that’s just going to be pictures of people reacting to poo poo Trump has said or done in their immediate presence. Like Buzz Aldrin’s bug eyes at Trump’s Space Force ramble, Trudeau looking down disgusted at Trump’s handshake attempt, that dude from the Al Smith dinner. I’m telling you, there’s a whole book out there.

I don't know if this is trying to read tea leaves or not, but that tweet from a few pages back, where Roberts randomly decided to blurt out that the SCOTUS isn't political, seems odd to me. Why now? Is it a subtle attempt to signal that the SCOTUS wouldn't protect Trump during impeachment proceedings?
