Good question by Frum. Some speculation in this piece by Paul Krugman. Trump is or is becoming unpopular.

Humphrey’s Executor Executed In Broad Shadow Docket Slaying, Above the Law In two-sentence order, without any accompanying reasoning, John Roberts ended almost a century of constitutional order. Exercising tremendous restraint, Chief Justice Roberts managed not to write “Executor? I […]
Trump’s efforts to remove Lisa Cook to appoint a lackey of his choice appears to have failed. It is one of those Have you no decency moments. To which I would suggest Tr__p and his followers doing his bidding really do not have such. Especially when the motives for doing what they did come to […]
