We read here that more Americans believe that the Earth is Flat or that the moon landing was faked, than believe that it’s okay for Trump to name government buildings after himself. I think we can assume that the same numbers prevail for his insistence that he appear on passports, gold coins, and $250.00 bills.
This is a repetition of a phenomenon that took place during his first Administration. Nothing he does is likely to attract new adherents, and everything he does is likely to drive some away. And it is clearly the case that there are very few people who, at this point, draw a distinction between any given Republican politician and Trump. As he turns people off to himself he turns them off to the Republican Party. This, of course, is something Republican politicians have brought on themselves, given their complete surrender to him, such that while in private they detest him, in public they treat him like a god.
One must hope the Democrats learn how to take advantage of all this, since, assuming again that they don’t steal the elections with the blessing of John Roberts, it will mean a fairly large victory at the polls in November.
