Is this the point where we all start pretending Trump is a master manipulator again?
One thing I can say for certain is that he's better at it than Donald Trump, Jr.

The Democrats will be unable to fix the Russia-Trump situation by simply believing things will return back to "normal" if he's impeached; and he probably won't be. What Trump represents is the globalization of an international oligarchy which invests heavily in high-end luxury real estate in places like London, Paris, New York, L.A., Miami, Panama City, etc.

These are safe havens to put looted cash from formerly state-owned industries in China and Russia. The reason the Russian oligarchs planted Trump (a high-end luxury real estate dealer) into the White House is because they were pissed at the sanctions in 2014, which choked off the flow into these Western cities. Same trend is what's giving us tax havens where billionaires stash their cash, and also have the Democrats by the nuts. Same phenomenon is also giving us the trend of ultra-rich people building survivalist bunkers and the like. They want to get their stolen goods into lockboxes before the crash.

The Russia stuff *is* hurting Trump and it's only going to get worse. Problem for Democrats is they're still heading for civil war that's going to explode in 2020 when 18 candidates dogpile onto the primaries.

The big question is if the GOP loses the House in 2018. Kinda up in the air. The Dems have no message but it might not matter. If the Republicans lose the House without accomplishing anything, then Trump might get challenged in the 2020 primaries. If that happens on both sides, it's going to be a total political meltdown.

Ted Cruz launches a coup attempt. Both parties splinter and Zuck becomes the American version of Macron and crowns himself Roman Emperor.

Nothing really matters as long as wealth keeps increasing, which it is.
The same belief took hold among Democrats in 2016 and they still got smashed.

I'll give the Trumpists the rally-size thing and the fake polls thing.

But not another inch!
