re: #113 EPR-radar

This is what I’ve always hoped for if/when Trump’s taxes come out:

1) There is enough revulsion at the fraction of Trump’s crooked tax shit that is actually legal to generate real pressure for reform.

2) The GOP donor class blames Trump’s excesses for creating this political problem.

3) The order to cut Trump dead goes out from on high to the entire right wing noise machine, and they all turn on Trump instantaneously.

4) Trump has a public meltdown because of this betrayal by Fox News et al.

5) Tax reform under a D president, Senate and House goes through anyway.

Nice thoughts, but it’s also just as likely that said “revulsion” never gets serious enough to get more than a handful of wingers and MAGAts upset about it for more than a minute. Trump’s appeal, AFAICT, is founded on a toxic stew of prejudice, fear, self-righteousness and tribalistic politics. And that mess is still going to be stinking up the Republican Party even after Trump gets the boot.
