I don't agree with the logic that "Wait to act because we want to show the people just how bad these ______ are". I am sure the same logic in 1933 Germany..."Those brownshirt Nazi drunks, when people see how bad they are..." How did that turn out? You have to stamp out evil like cancer when it starts.
I love Trump, I do..but he believes his own bullsh*t sometimes and I do see a little complacency and overconfidence. The American people CAN be that dumb.
