I feel like the people saying "Trump will never face any real consequences" at this point are more just spreading their own hopelessness than anything else. I don't buy that they actually know.

@BathysphereHat Yeah its also very much a "only worry about a result not the process" which is itself a weird proposition. Maybe its fatalistic but my view is its better to make an attempt then to not even if victory isn't assured.

I sometimes wonder if some of these folks WANT Trump to "win" because it proves they're right the system is brokem

Maybe it all won't matter, but they dont know that for certain.
