turmp has broken the 50% approval barrier?? Yes, Americans are stupid. As for Biden's approval caving, it could be because the Dems who worked their asses off, first for him, then for Harris, are ticked off that he's normalizing trump by welcoming him to the WH, being at his inauguration, and treating him like a real president. Biden doesn't have to send a mob to the Capitol, nor should he, but he doesn't have to be a pushover for trump.

A clever comparison, although nothing compares to Trump and nothing compares to Americans who want the Soma of an imaginary history mixed with the meth of primal hate. These past ten years have shown that they were meant for each other. Trump could not have succeeded anywhere else - he’s not smart enough to outwit truly Machiavellian rivals or his personal Iago. And MAGA Americans require more insult-comic entertainment than the typical despot could provide them.
