What will it take? I ask this question in greater detail on my blog (link below) but essentially I am asking this: what realistically will it take for MAGA to finally admit Trump's presidency (his SECOND presidency, for God's sake) has been a failure? seanobrienwriter.com/index.html

Is it really any surprise that one sex criminal wants to appoint another sex criminal to the position of chief law enforcement officer?
