The consequence of this election is likely unfix-able, especially when you consider the SC.

and the optics of the meeting gave the impression that he was the HERO of the CIA, just as he's being investigated by several intelligence agencies for espionage and possible treason.

Without his Peanut Gallery, the tone of the speech and the somberness of the setting would not go well for Trumpy. Now, a few days later, our suspicions have been confirmed. The Potemkin Presidency is in full swing.

The Vietnam protests were massive and vigorous-- and sustained. But nothing compared to the volume of people at Saturday's marches. These protests will continue, and they should be relentless. While Trumpy will continue to turn a deaf ear to all of it and then attempt to demonize the movement, the GOP Congresspeople will be shitting in their respective pants. Protesters will be targeting Congress for massive change in two years. They know it, and they have no where to hide.
