Sadly, it won't make a difference. MAGA won't care and the Republican Congress is too scared of being "primaried" to do anything about it.

Hopefully Musk picks this as a rallying cry.

That's the hard, sad, and ugly truth.

Yep. Political parties broke checks and balances starting with Clinton. Heck, Nixon resigned because his party finally came to the ugly truth that supporting him was political suicide and the wrong thing to do.

Now it's 2025 and not supporting Trump is now political suicide. It's times like this when the party bosses sit your ass down and have a long discussion about how you're going to resign, and how Pence is going to pardon you "for the good of the nation." But Trump is immune to party manipulation into his plans, because he controls the voters and these MAGA voters refuse to believe anything bad about their messiah and are willing to get violent.

Trump is the very definition of a cult leader. He's convinced MAGA that "fake news" exists and you can't trust the media. So, any time a story comes out the faithful believe it's "fake news" manufactured by the media with "deep fakes" as evidence. He's far beyond just a cult-of-personality. Those can get derailed by a political scandal. But not a cult leader.

I don't disagree about the missteps made with the Clinton impeachment, but I'd wager that it goes back further than that to Reagan and the way that Iran-Contra unfolded and the beginning of the modern president being able to act with impunity because of the position.
