It's been another bad week(end) for Donald Trump. First, on Saturday afternoon, Texas Republicans impeached Trump’s close ally Ken Paxton over Trump’s loud objections. Then, later on Saturday evening, House Republicans cut a Biden-friendly budget deal over Trump’s loud objections. It's encouraging that at least the saner GOP'ers no longer care what Trump wants, and they’re no longer particularly worried about his threats of retaliation and are moving away from Trump. Republican politicians always do whatever they think is selfishly best for themselves and their own career prospects. If they thought there were some chance that Trump would end up in power again, or even become relevant again, do you really think they’d be moving away from him like this?  The MAGAs never will. In fact, I went camping over the weekend to Mt. Baker National forest and on the way up, I saw a Trump2024 sign.  (MAGAs are incorrigible and they'll deny saner GOP'ers the R-nom in 2024. Oh well...  )

Welp, Paxton was acquitted of all 16 charges.
The TX GOP state senate did what the US GOP Senate caucus did for Trump — let him avoid any other accountability for his criminal behavior, even though some of the TX GOP don’t support Paxton’s corruption.

They would rather have a corrupt MAGA-head in office rather than a supporter of the rule of law who is not a MAGA-head.

Good rhetorical Q?
However, I will still advocate for every MAGA to become vote counters ... so when Trump loses again no one can complain about fraud.

Rwingers are great projectionists - they accuse others of doing what they themselves are doing. Therefore, I would not let a MAGAt within 500 feet of an election count - who knows how many briefcases of ballots they'll add to the count after the election is officially over?
