> Until you become the leaders covering it up, I suppose
Sure, covering up your own messes is survival. That said, it’s not like Trump being a rapist and liking them young was concealed from the electorate ex ante…
> Maybe it's a good hill to climb. A stupid one to die on if you don't deliver
It’s a lucrative hill to climb. I wouldn’t say it’s a good one.
The funny thing about Trump is he’s been done in, in part, by his authoritarianism. He can’t credibly claim an external force is holding him back (as he did with his tax returns) because he’s eviscerated all such forces.
> half the population?
Oh man no, maybe 5% of the population in Manhattan shows up. So maybe half of that. (Which is a lot of people. But not a lot of districts.)
