    It is pretty insane how outsized Trump’s influence is.

    • He sank a bipartisan immigration bill developed, in part, by some of the most conservative members of Congress, with the sole purpose of denying a victory to the Whitehouse.
    • He and his most fervent cultists still refuse to concede that he lost the 2020 election.
    • Politics of fear and spite, afflicting large swaths of the electorate with such.
    • Democrats have been “in power” for… almost 4 years. It’s not a mystery, it’s simple arithmetic!
