The GOP is backing him on all of his insanity.

The Democrats are wringing their hands and blathering about the next election.

Congress, the Senate, and the Supreme Court are all either actively supporting him or not taking any action to stop him.

The ENTIRE US GOVERNMENTAL STRUCTURE IS SUPPORTING A WAR CRIMINAL IN HIS ATTEMPS TO START WORLD WAR THREE.

You just noticed this pattern now?

No, I've been screaming it from the rooftops for ages.

But the number of times I hear people say "once Trump dies..." or "at the next election..." and we need people to understand that Trump is only the noisiest head of the hydra. Removing Trump won't end the problem.

Precisely, the US behaves like a depraved empire in decline because it is one.

No it won't immediately solve everything, but it is also a necessary first step. There are lot of people saying that in a "might as well do nothing" kind of way.

People should understand by now that Trump is some special flavour of insane, but if he kicked the bucket tomorrow the entire mechanism that gives him power will still exist.

If anything they might be less erratic and get their agenda pushed through quicker.
