“Can anyone imagine any Democrat governor doing this for Trump?”
**************
Democrats don’t have the self-destruction instinct that Republicans have.
I beg to differ. TDS hurts Democrats politically among independent voters. That's why Trump's numbers went up after the Colorado fiasco. Democrats pandered to their base, and it hurt them. There are tons of Republicans and independents who aren't fans of Trump, but detest the way the Democrats have acted so they support Trump anyway.
They've just been hurting themselves with this, but they are prisoners of the most radical elements of their base and so do it anyway. I don't see a reason why we should emulate their stupidity.
