And as they become weaker and more unpopular, we will see more trumpublican defections. It is a vicious downward spiral. But they are going to do everything in their power to enrich themselves and their cronies, and advance their efforts to corrupt the institutions and processes by which our will is measured and implemented, employing ever more extreme schemes all the way to the bitter end.
Perhaps the only thing that is a good bet is that things (not just Epstein, but everything) are going to get a lot uglier as they go down.
