I remain skeptical about Trump winning the election this November, but eight months out it is looking like he could win the election, which is not something I thought would be the case. There is a long way to go, of course, so we cannot assume anything. The change in tone we are seeing in the media, however, suggests that the people who actually run things may be softening on Trump. Maybe they are just busy with other things at the moment, but it does feel like something has changed.
The panic in Europe over Project Ukraine is another clue. They are worried that Trump winning will not only mean the end of money for Ukraine, but that Trump may pull troops from Europe. Presumably they think this because they are hearing it from their handlers in Washington. It could just be a scare tactic to get them to step up while the Kagan cult scrambles for a new plan. It could also be a sign that the winds of change are blowing through the political class.
On the other hand, we saw these respites when Trump was in office. The crazies would take a break, only to come back even crazier. It could be that they are resting up for a summer of lunacy. Getting Antifa and BLM back together will take time. These court cases are all stalled for one reason or another, so they need to get those going again. There is a lot of time between now and November, so I think we can expect plenty of new shenanigans this summer.
