@Nyver253 : He's got more backing for it, than ever, and the support is building. That's why the Dems are hyperventilating and fighting rearguard action. They still have some mean tricks up their sleeve. Trump's always postured aggressively, but he really hasn't FORCED things, yet. If he had used his full executive powers, the push-back would've been immense, and the Dems would've had plenty of weight behind digging in their heels. If you're caught up in the day-to-day, you maybe don't see how far the Dems have been FORCED to change their goalposts - not by Trump, but by perception and public opinion turning against their intransigence.
They're incapable of moderating their tone, but they're arguing in totally different ways, now. When Nancy started talking about "mowing the grass" and "drones" and "sensors," the cracks were there for all to see. In 2017, they were just "NO!" Now they're quibbling over means. They KNOW they're swimming against the tide on this, but they can't back down or they'll lose face and lose base They MUST win EVERY pissing contest, EVERY DAY, but if you take a step back, you see they're losing the war.
The same thing is sweeping Europe. The USA usually lags behind Europe on these movements, so the results tend to show at the ballot box, more than the streets, because things don't go far enough to drive us out into the streets in any significant numbers. People play it like Antifa is this huge thing, but they're basically a few hundred or a few thousand against a score or a few hundred. It seems like they're big, but they're just the biggest frogs in a very insular and tiny pond of people pissed off enough to go out and wave signs.
By the time this globalist, intersectional, identity crap reached the working man in the U.S., Trump got elected, and jobs for those people appeared. This didn't happen in Europe. There, the working man was on his last legs, in a system that was taxing him to extinction. With Macron running the show, and looking for more of the same. Here, Trump was elected and brought jobs back, and tapped into that Nationalist Populism right when the left-establishment were at their peak, EAGER to go the way of Europe, IGNORING the tidal wave of populist resistance, even though the left in Europe was already backing off globalism, out of self-preservation. Without the working class, the left is down to the super-rich and those who live off the system, rather than contributing to it. Another few years of Democrat presidents and we'd be in a similar situation to that in France.
