Trump is the American status and identity, now with worry-free espionage.

No, the rats won’t desert the sinking ship. That’s all they have left. It’s their status and their identity.

One would think Trump would be losing support exponentially from the party of law and order after he was caught with 11 or so boxes of national security information, and probable cause for violation of the Espionage Act. He’s not. Republicans stepped up to support him, call for defunding of the FBI, attacking FBI agents and officers, calling for civil war.
