 https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/05/19/marjorie-taylor-greene-impeachment-biden-immigration/

Thus they rose to power by connecting with the voters that
FEEL the same way about facts.

And the last thing they'd ever want to do is solve a
problem that they could campaign on.     How could they
ever get on Fox then?

Is everybody equal before the law?    Especially before

 https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/18/politics/donald-trump-documents-classified-2024/index.html

The fundamental issue is that Trump, like all personality
cultists and defenders of minority rule, believes that
laws are for persecuting opponents, not inhibiting friends,
and don't apply to the ruling class.

And that reflects the fundamental conflict in American
culture from the beginning - the inherited conflict between
feudalism and the Enlightenment - between irrefutable truth
revealed by authorities sanctified by the state church,
and malleable truth subject to continuing challenge
and revelation by whoever can make the best case from
the facts.

How will America ever handle an election over epistemology?
Ambiguously, probably, just as in previous crises.

All those FBI arrests, trials, convictions, and sentences
have had their effect on persons contemplating criminal
protests.      Could be a trap!    Indeed it could.
Rest assured Putin (and Trump) don't care much what happens
to the foot soldiers .

Meanwhile GOP leaders will continue to voice support for
Trump as long as they think he'll be sidelined for good.
He's more valuable to them in jail than free.

DeSantis' complicated game - how to sideline Trump without
losing support of Trump's base.       It's a problem for
all would-be Trump replacements, but mostly theoretical
at this point for all except DeSant

He wrote a book that courageously avoided taking any
stands -

 https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/19/opinion/ron-desantis-donald-trump-courage-free.html

But now the hard-core Trumpists want him to put up or shut
up -

 https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/19/us/politics/desantis-trump-indictment.html

Just ask yourself - what would they all be saying if Biden
were indicted on similar charges?

Everybody does the same things.

So nobody is better or worse than anybody else.

So it is UNFAIR!!! to pick on any one leader over others.

 https://www.political-scrapbook.net/2022-credos.html

They also agree that the purpose of the law is to eliminate
their opponents, and also agree to squeal UNFAIR!!! like
stuck pigs if they think their opponents are using the
law to eliminate them.

Trump and Putin agree that strong leaders are better than
democracy.  So it's no surprise that so many America First!

Congressional Trumpists have become Putinists,

 https://www.businessinsider.com/kinzinger-republicans-who-support-putin-affection-for-authoritarianism-2022-2

following America First! Lindbergh's adulation of Hitler -

 https://www.thehistoryreader.com/us-history/hitlers-american-friends-charles-lindbergh-america-first/

Why waste time arguing with your opponents if you can
just eliminate them?       As many as necessary, as Stalin
would say.

==

They offer political advantages to religious leaders in
return for political support, but reject the essence of
Christianity  in every act of their careers - store up
for yourselves treasures in heaven ? -

go and sit down in the lowest room ??  - whosoever shall
smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also
??? - that's for the poor and powerless!     Personality
cultists want to make sure that they have received their
reward in full in this life - which is the only life they
really believe in.      Pilate and Caesar would be in full
agreement, as would any mafioso.      God did not choose
Trump to carry out God's purposes; Trump chose God-talk
to carry out Trump's purposes.

==

Perhaps the leak was manufactured by state or Federal
authorities - or by Fox or Putin or somebody else -

 https://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-truth-social-indictment-charges-2023-3

and planted for Trump, to see how he would react to
an actual indictment, the better to prepare for the
consequences - or just for the joy of further disrupting
and dividing American society -

 https://apnews.com/article/trump-grand-jury-investigation-manhattan-e35836ebb6179e1c0ea28877590cfc1c

Or to get his supporters excited, then let them cool off,
and announce the actual indictment some time in the future
after they've gone home.

Or to see just how debased his Congressional supporters
can become.

 https://apnews.com/article/trump-republicans-arrest-indictment-rivals-defense-24fc4d906d09a85965f60ef0f68cdd93

And even if the original actual intent were to announce
an indictment on Tuesday, that could easily be rescheduled
for a more opportune time.

Or maybe Trump just made it up and broadcast it to see
who his true faithful supporters were.

==

But wait!    There's more!   Coming from Georgia and
Mar-a-Lago and ...!

 https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2022/feb/07/donald-trump-list-legal-cases

But it seems like a safe bet, that at a time and place not
of his choosing, Trump will be called to account before
the law.     Unless he makes the best use of the available
time by decamping to some place without an extradition
treaty - like Russia.

It's just another front in the death match between the
fantastic fanatic fringe, who reflect the base, and the
less ideological opportunists, who reflect the rest of the
usual and occasional GOP voters.     The fringe wants to
purge the party of everybody else, and the less ideological
want to keep as large a tent as possible to insure that
protecting minority is feasible.

Trump can't decide whether he wants more to purge the
disloyal or to win in 2024.     So both sides increasingly
ignore him.

It's lottery politics - you get more publicity by making
a few people much better off than by making everybody
a little bit better off.    As in Trump's random pardon
process!      All his supporters were encouraged by the
publicized pardons and hoped for the same, but only a
few actually got the prize, mostly based on what Trump
though they could do for him in the future, rather than in
gratitude for what they did for him in the past.  But the
lawyers who offered to press the case for the petitioners
did OK, whether their clients did or not.

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/11/05/trump-revenge-second-term/

Trump thinks the Federalist Society is too law-abiding
for his tastes.    After all they did for him! - grooming
the reactionary judiciary that is the foundation of the
defense of minority rule.     Rule of law?    Trump only
cares about the Rule of Trump.

And he's perfect for leading the charge for minority
rule - he captures all the media attention, while his own
attention span is too short for any of the quiet detailed
work required to replace competence and objectivity with
personal loyalty in the Federal workforce.

As always, the brown shirts that provide the muscle and
the megadonors that provide the money will overthrow the
government while saying they are protecting it.  Just like
fascists always do.
