I've got a poll going elsewhere on why people are resigning or turning against him now:
- They were too dumb or naive to see where this was all headed
- Dems won GA and ended the GOP majority
- Trump was doing something extra crazy we haven't heard about yet (this keeps aging out)
- They don't care one way or the other about anything but riding the gravy train
- They were fine with sedition and treason until it became a televised spectacle
- They suddenly realized that if the mob was coming for Pence, any of them could be next
But the choice that's winning is: "He can't attack them on Twitter."
I do realize that Twitter has been his preferred weapon and I’m glad he’s banned, but this is just a bizarre state of affairs
Someone not from here posted something on FB about rioters losing their jobs and it is very frustrating to not comment “let me wipe away the tears with my plastic hand” because he wouldn’t get the reference
Me too!
I have brought out “Captain Logic is not driving this tugboat” several times this week.
I had to come here where my people would understand me

Oh man, that is a shame. But we get you.
It looks like Trump tried to use several other Twitter accounts he had access to ad those were shut down. Also his fund raising spam emails seem to have stopped and it looks like that got shut down as well.
If I was a better person I would probably feel slightly bad for Graham. At this point everyone seems to hate him and he just keeps clinging to Trump. Instead I'm hoping he gets caught doing something that will land him in jail.

One of the best things about watching BtVS/AtS with D last year is having him recognize things I've been saying for his entire life without providing context.
I am disgusted with anyone in Congress or the Cabinet right now who isn't actively trying to remove Trump from office. I mean, we've been saying for 4 years "surely THIS will be the last straw before the sensible adults wake up and do something!" but there isn't actually a line to cross beyond ARMED FUCKING INSURRECTION. (Well, "successful coup" I guess, but at that point Congress wouldn't technically be empowered to do anything anymore.)
It does seem like a whole bale of hay. Surely the last straw is in there.
