All good points. And thanks for the thoughtful reply.
To be honest, things in DC are so volatile right now that I’m not sure what will happen. One thing that has been a constant however is Republican hesitation and weakness (some things never change). I just don’t trust any of them because they never give us any reasons to.
For conservatives and Republicans, DC is hostile territory. Like water wears down stone, even the hardest conservatives and Republicans in DC tend to get worn down by the constant opposition and treachery and the routine struggles of life and career. Trump, God Bless him, seems of an entirely different sort.
