    This should tell you all something about the road you’re all going down with this guy. Salivating at the prospect of a mugshot got you losing touch with the political landscape.

    This guy’s political brand is “the establishment is corrupt and out to get me because I challenge their corruption, the media is in on it.” Every single thing you do to counter him strengthens him. You can’t mock him because he’s an unapologetic bufoon. And he has the perceived image of having tried to deliver on his promises and being blocked by the whole machine, seeing as he has been president before. ISIS destroyed, dollar a gallon gasoline, Israel having diplomatic relations with several Arab countries, this is a hard guy to beat politically, he has positioned himself nicely and branded himself just so that you cannot take his base from him no matter what you do, or what he does. “I could shoot someone in the middle of 5th avenue and not lose a single vote” should make it very clear, this guy is 100% self aware, he knows exactly how he is perceived and he uses it as a strength.

          2016 was a fluke and democrats are too spooked to miss an election, seeing how they haven’t had a true defeat since then
