Once all of the arrests are made.. everything is going to cool down because the current Democrat part is filled with dumbasses who can't do anything unless Obama, Peloei, Chick etc pull the strings for them.

Thankfully they will all be in prison by then

Trump is the most consequential person of my lifetime. He has not played the usual political game, and we the people, are much more informed because he speaks his mind. Sadly, we won't see another like him.

The cooldown you are referring to is also known as being kept in the dark.

The short answer is no.

The longer answer...

The current playbook of political campaigns was written by someone who has been somewhat forgotten- Lee Atwater who destroyed Michael Dukakis with the Willie Horton ads in 1988.

James Carville was the Democratic response to Lee Atwater in the 90's. He took the playbook and built on it.

It's become the way business is done and with new technology it has only gotten more entrenched.

We live in a time of bias confirmation. Truth has become relative and unimportant to people who really only seek out the opinions that confirm the opinions they already had.

The professional ruling class understands how to use the current media to keep the common people divided while they escape any actual accountability.

It's a game both parties play.

I hope to hell not. “Political Cooldown” invariably means that RINOs have gone full cuck and caved to the left.

The Democrats stay up at night thinking about the day Trump is out of office because he doesn’t take their shite. They killed Charlie Kirk because of his large voter registration numbers. They’ve tried to kill Trump 3 times now and it won’t be the last. They’ve already shown how desperately they want the power back. That kind of evil doesn’t just fizzle out.

Of course not. Trump isn't the problem.

frick, no. People think this started with Trump. Does anyone remember how they treated Gee Dub? And he was as establishment and RINO as it gets.

The next Republican prez will be the next Hitler to the Reddit revolutionaries and trust fund radicals.

Yeah, this has been happening since social media really took off. W was Hitler, McCain was POW Hitler, Romney was Mormon Hitler, Trump is the Hitleriest Hitler, and Vance will be Appalachian Hitler.

The can of spaghetti -"O'"s (worms if you like) has been opened. I think they might have already thrown the lid in the trash.

“If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.”
- Barack Obama

The dems have been ramping up the hate and violent talk at least since W beat Gore. The difference is that W wanted everyone to like him so he never fought back, but Trump faces their stuff head on and doubles down to get what he wants.

I think it will be even worse when Trump is gone because we will be back to the kinds of Republicans who never fight back.

The political machine has been exposed. It is not representative of the people AT ALL. It is an entity that has characters at the front (politicians) who are controlled by various puppet masters (unelected staffers, companies, and foreign governments). It is all a movie, directed by those controllers, that we are expected to watch and enjoy with the price of admission being our taxes.

No, there have already been muttering from the left that Vance may be worse than Trump. We haven't seen anything yet.

A cooldown can only happen through capitulation by a weak right, which is the greatest post Trump worry.

The left will never lean in on a cooldown. I think they have clearly demonstrated that since 2016. They lie, cheat and will clearly kill (attempt).

No, because unless you give them everything they want you are EVIL and deserve to die.

I don't think it will cool down. We are at a point in American history where we have a higher percentage of people who think Communism is a great idea than ever before. They are not the majority but there are lots of stupid voters out there that will vote for them because they promise 'fairness and equality for all.'

Politics is a rough sport just Ronald Regan, the MSM, Dems, and Rino's hated RR, hated him, and without doubt HW Bush was stabbing him in the back the Whole time, IMO.... People forget RR was kind of a populist in his time, the R's hated him, just as much as the D's, then the people who hated him, used his name for everything because he won two terms. I don't think things will quite down for a while the world will not allow for it. To many things in the world have to be confronted. That will led to hard feelings on both sides...

Sure. All we have to do is comply with the Mamdanis and Newsoms of the world, and everything will be fine.

I'm genuinely fascinated that you still think everything was 'fine' before Trump. We've been LIED TO for decades, and you're eager to rush back to that blissful state of ignorance.
