I think you are right, and I hope so.
I also think that there will be no movement and it will seem that nothing is happening, until someone loses their nerve and then there will be a scramble to abandon him.

I assumed at first those tweets had to be fabricated.
Sigh.
In any case, on Twitter there is much condemnation of the tweets by republicans.
I think now more than ever the Trump should be censured for "conduct unbecoming of the Presidency". Force congress persons to take a stand.

It's a shame, since in many ways I have a "Center Right" viewpoint,and we need someone to put the brakes on the "Progressives" more inane ideas.

A official at NBC news says it all:
They have a fix for that. The "Election Integrity" commission is requesting full voter rolls, including names and party affiliations, from every single state. That'll make targeted voter suppression easier.

Hate to say it, but I think massive voter suppression is not quite as easy to do as you think it is. Or,if it is, then you need to go out and buy yourself a rifle, because armed resistence it what it will come down to.
Of course I also realize you are out to make the GOP look as bad as possible.

And speaking of that, when is the sooper
seekrit plan going into effect? You know, the one from the guy who knows more than the generals. Believe Me!
It doesn't need to be massive. Preventing 1 or 2% of eligible voters in targeted areas can create a significant effect.
That's just stupid and ineffective.
I'm not forcing the GOP to push the voter fraud myth nor do I want credit for it.

"Republican condemnation" and $4 won't get you a Starbucks coffee.
I am tired of "republican condemnation" that is nothing more than words.
He's not a Republic serial villain. Do you seriously think he'd explain his master-stroke if there remained the slightest chance of ISIS affecting its outcome? He did it one month ago.
Only a small group of people knew about Operation Covfefe.

It's not just the lie about the "bleeding face", (to me) it's straight up hatred for
women.
Yeah, I wonder how Ivanka feels about the level of viciousness now.
Damn, we gotta a "Real Housewife of New York" as the POTUS.

She has a lot of practice and not noticing this kind of behavior from her father, what makes you think that she would start noticing it now?

Voter suppression is a lot easier than you think when laws make it easy. See American History 1865-1970ish. See North Carolina 2016.

I am a Republican, but I chose not to vote for Trump because it was evident to me that Trump would be detrimental to the well-being of the United States, which has now been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt as China looks to take over the leadership role from the United States and as US allies lick their wounds inflicted upon them by Trump and as Russia smiles at the great job Trump is doing at discrediting the US in the eyes of the world, which might be a clue as to why Trump refuses to condemn Russia for meddling in the US presidential elections. Republicans need to wake up before Trump causes further damage to America.
There were those who thought that Hitler was good for Germany, but look what happened. There are those who think that Trump is good for America, but look what's happening now as Trump ruins America's image around the world.
Hitler was anti-Jew and Trump is anti-Muslim,and both have been detrimental to their countries, but regarding America, Trump's campaign to ruin America continues to this very day. I hope someone leaks a photo of Putin patting Trump on the back and congratulating him for the fine work he has been doing for trashing the United States when they meet and perhaps, that may be the wake up call for those who still think that Trump is good for America.

And yet, if they said nothing, you'd loudly criticize their silence.

And? Is there something unreasonable about that? Speaking up is the least they can do. Should we pin medals on them when that speaking up goes absolutely nowhere?

Irony is, of course, that Jim Scarborough ,whose show has not exactly been tearing them up in the ratings, is going to get a huge boost through this. You would think that somebody whose is supposed to be such a great salesman and master of using the media would understand this......

Then it's hopeless? Like I said, if you really believe what you say then there is NO other path then armed resisitence.

No, but a phrase that comes to mind is "credit where credit is due".
I use it a lot when people I generally disagree with do the right thing.
