      To be fair, other than the subtext created by running, I don’t think he’s ever criticized Trump.

        He hasn’t. With a handful of obvious exceptions, the entire Republican leadership has spent the last four years running a clinic in cowardice, pathetic boot-licking and groveling.

        I’d imagine in a dark and dystopian future, the dictatorial and dysfunctional trump dynasty will simply imprison any challengers to the throne, like their daddy Putin does.

          It’s an interesting and terrifying thought experiment. Hopefully we’re not actually going to run it IRL.

          For whatever it’s worth, I don’t think it would fly in a country as massive and habitually fractious as the US, but I’ve been wrong about a lot of things in the past --never imagined that an unlettered buffoonish corndog conman like Trump could even come within sniffing distance of the presidency for example-- so who the fuck knows?

          I don’t have a lot of faith in my fellow Americans. I probably never should have, but hindsight is always 20-20 or whatever.
