Everyone in Emerald City always thinks we want to be in Emerald City. We don't. We like our normal, ordinary, awesome lives.

We don't like Emerald City taxing us, trying to take our guns, indoctrinating our children, redefining gender, taking over healthcare, and so on.
The sad thing is, most of us voted for the Emerald City candidates for decades because they promised they were different.

Here's one of my Emerald City votes torpedoing the repeal of Obamacare that he promised he would do.

Maybe this behavior should be impeachable?
I'm left with the feeling that the "norms" are the only thing that actually matter to these people. Yes, Trump craps all over the norms. Sometimes it hurts him. Sometimes, however, it helps him because the norms were stacked against us. "Be kind while they call you a Nazi."
How has Trump survived 3 years while doing everything he's not supposed to do? It's pretty simple. He's tried to do the things he promised he would do. That's the big lesson the conservative Illuminati should be learning and I'm afraid they're not.
Trump's antics are sometimes frustrating and sometimes entertaining, but they're just that at the end of the day. Consider something like the talk of red flag laws. He strayed outside of what people voted for and the push back was immediate (except from the give-an-inch right).
People didn't just vote for Trump's behavior even though many consider it an asset and they like watching him "fight". They voted for issues and he's largely stuck to them and has thereby maintained the support of his base, not because of his antics, but in spite of them.
