White collar country club republicans. These people are the donors to senate republicans. When they start feeling the shutdown and calling their senators, that's when the rubber will meet the road. reo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamalisms Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 You guys thinking the Mueller report Will be accepted at face value are probably going to be disappointed. The groundwork for dismissing it as a partisan witch hunt is two years old and those continuing to dismiss it already know a good bit of the truth and just ignore it.

You're right concerning deplorables. Most of the country doesn't follow it closely. Once it's all over the news it will change that. The polls supporting Mueller and impeachment are pretty high now reo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there's a segment of his base that will dismiss everything but as was shown with Cohen and Manafort, a legit court filing or investigation result will change some minds. We'll see how many.

It will take pressure from his colleagues. Which, itself, will take a drop in support for Trump among republican rank and file. They are politicians. So it's the polls that will matter.

Legaltitan Posted January 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Another thing that sure wouldn't hurt would be if McConnels wife left the administration. Don't tell me Trump hasn't hung that over McConnels head a few times. She's an accomplished woman, and if not for the horrible conflict of interest was actually one of the few solid picks for the cabinet. Someday she'll get tired of working there and she has options and no doubt could make a ton of money in private sector. As long as she is there though McConnel has one more reason not to get sideways with Trump. reo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He believes this fight is important to his base and he believes this is good politics and defense for him and a good distraction. Any evidence to the contrary will be murky for a while and therefore won't convince him to go against his gut. I just don't know why he thinks this fight is the one he'll win. I mean, the shutdown is easily explained to almost everyone. And this affects everyone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
