Do you sense a Trump-weariness beginning to descend across the land? [View all]

I do.

It's subtle but there.

You can see it in his crowd who seems to be getting tired of hearing the same dozen points (and prompts like "Who's going to build the wall, folks?&quot interspersed with his braggadocio and name calling. The points might still have some resonance(though hearing them repeated in the same fashion must be a bit boring even for them) but the bragging is only tolerable to them when they unquestioningly love the man, and I sense that love beginning to wane.

When it starts to go, it will go fast.
