A major coup


 GOP unshaken by Comey's testimony against Trump.

Why would anyone think otherwise?

It's not like Comey's testimony brought up anything we all didn't know, or suspect about our president's personality and character.

Shaking up the GOP has less to do with what is right, or wrong, legal, or illegal, than what Trump can do because he is governed by only one rule-- what he wants. Even a picture, which is supposedly worth a thousand words, cannot change his mind.

Trump is one of those frightening people who believes what he says, even when it absolutely contradicts what he said, or did, before. 

The GOP has decided to back him because -- well, God only knows -- but probably because they think his outrageous behavior will, or would have, garnered them things they wouldn't get if Clinton was elected. They might have preferred someone else, but no one else had enough money.

Right now Trump is the one sure thing the GOP has. He is a sitting president of the United States of America, elected in spite of his manners, morals, pouty face, temper tantrums, or alternative truth.

That in and of itself is quite a coup.
