Melania got paid to go with him to the funeral, wear the veil and the black lace gloves, and act mournful?

Trump is said to be a real billionaire now.
His grifting is paying off bigly.

Melania has to wear an ugly outfit, looking like a mafia wife at a mob funeral.
Pretending to be sad.
She was overacting horribly.
And sit next to orange hitler who was an embarrassment.

There are ways that Trump can and will be removed, but the 25th is not one of them.

I am thinking the serious threat of a nuclear war might make the GOP grow a spine.

I think that the SCOTUS might relook at the immunity verdict for Trump.

I am thinking when the MAGA crazies realize that they have been seriously played for the fools that they are - some of them are going to want payback.

I am thinking that when the nation as a whole has had enough and we the people shut down everything, then and only then.

...would it still be a good issue to use against them? Since they were always saying what a mess Joe Biden was? Or are we beyond "playing politics" with an issue?

I don't think that there is an "issue" that you can use against them. I think that the GOP and his base have to lose everything before they will change. But I also think that at some point 'they' will have to be shamed or ostracized because of their lack of values, morality, and decency combined with their intolerance.
Part of the 'issue' is that even once we recognize the real reasons for their voting as they do (bad as it may be) - they are always welcomed back into the fold and forgiven. We pretend it never happened. Now, they have shown that they are willing to throw our nation away for a dictator (with all his faults) and his enablers. The hardest part of being friends and family is sometimes you have to walk away.

My thoughts...

Then again this man fell asleep in a court, and he still won the election. The man drools away while the world burns.

We’re fucked.

We should not take everything that is said as written in stone.

There is a propaganda war going on and we don't do very well.

The goal is to get people to think and to recognize the hypocrisy of those that screamed constantly about Joe Biden's lack of mental acuity.
