Transparent isn’t the word I’d use. It’s more like predictable—he only melts down when he loses control of the narrative.

In this environment, statehood for DC, the abolition of lengthy debates, and the expansion of the Supreme Court are no longer considered radical, but rather acts of institutional self-preservation. Anyone hoping to return to 2015 is essentially surrendering unilaterally.

They bet on the wrong future: they thought Trump was a one-off incident, that they could "go back to 2015."
The result: the system is still designed according to the old world, but power has entered a new world of rules.
The rules haven't upgraded, but ambition has.

The courts have long known that law enforcement officers will inevitably cross the line in the "race to catch criminals." The problem isn't that they don't understand the constitution, but that the system tacitly allows them to overstep boundaries with no cost.

These ICE nutjobs wouldn’t be hired for government jobs at any other level. They’re playing Rambo in cities. Any cop who did this would be desked, suspended, and charged.
