You know, it's roughly 50 50.

But especially if Democrats win the House, you are going to see a Trump that goes completely off the rails.

Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

And he is going to put a lot of people in positions of having to either do what Trump wants or not do it.

And that's the next layer.

It's one thing when Trump expresses an idea and they hedge and they go, you know what?

I think the president was getting at is really this other thing.

OK, fine.

We can see what you're doing, but fine.

That's not about action.

Once it's hey, we lost.

They're now subpoenaing me.

Here's what I need you to do.

Are you going to do it or are you not going to do it?

And I have been saying this for years.

I believe that you will see Republicans peel off more and more and more off of Donald Trump as they realize Trump's going to be gone soon.
