I think that's more likely to be the story of American democracy's demise is that there actually isn't this grand confrontation between the Supreme Court and Trump. But that is not the But I guess we won't know the answer to your question, whether the public cares about that other more methodical assault on democracy until we tell that story.
I'm not sure that Americans will care any less about that. But right now, that's not the story broadly that the progressive left is telling. We are sort of hanging our hat on everything is probably OK until John Roberts and Donald Trump square off in a duel.
