But for trump it’s more about stoking his ego. If he is still alive after losing the coming election he’ll surely crash and burn. Especially when his minions fail to rise up and hand him the kingship he desires.

Have the deluded learned a lesson after so many ended up in prison? Or do they still believe he has the power to "protect" them?

I think a lot of people look at the J6 perps going to jail with more being arrested all the time. There’ll be some true believers but the number is shrinking. Also, as someone pointed out in a recent post, it’s NY city. Most of his fervent followers would be scared to death to go to NY and TSF is constantly talking about how dangerous it is there

Lawrence O'Donnell said that he took a morning walk past the courthouse and the "protesters" were negligible, he took a photo of people sitting on benches and babies sleeping in their strollers on a sunny day.
