The Flight **94** Election

Mickey Kaus is a very savvy observer .... 

The Flight 94 Election?

#18: Not the thought I wanted to think, believe me ...

It's been hard enough for Trump's opponents to weather the 40 months since their 2016 humiliation -- which, for Democrats, crushed the presumption that demographics (the "coalition of the ascendant," Ron Brownstein subtly called it) would lead to permanent political dominance. The arc of history compels it!  2016 was equally infuriating for the Never Trump Republicans, reduced to waiting for what would surely be a tax-cutting/interventionist/loose borders K-St. Restoration (in which they could prosper whether they won the presidency or not).

The problem isn't anything specific Trump's done. It's a simple social fact: If Trump wins in 2020, the country will be ripped apart. If Trump loses, that's unlikely to happen.

I like Kaus, but I think he is a bit of a coward here.

I will make an analogy: that there is no absolute beauty, when there clearly is -- the Hungarian Parliament in Budapest is a beautiful building, but the Jewish Museum in Berlin is not.

There is right and there is wrong -- the left lunatics who have done everything they could to destroy the Trump presidency even before it began, including spewing their hatred for Trump 24/7, are in the wrong, and must be subjugated/put in their place -- the country must not be allowed to be "torn apart" by these hysterical idiots.

"It's difficult to think of anything Trump could do to calm them down, even if it were in his nature to do that"

NOTHING Don can do or would want to do with ever "calm them down". They have been out to get Don even before the man got the nomination much less was elected.
