If one believes that nothing about a tax amnesty for Trump and his family or a slush fund for Trump’s rioters is legitimate, one might see conceding any of it as a surrender to Trump. This is @harrylitman.bsky.social’s view. I agree with it. Cornyn and Tillis were just putting on a show.

The Blanche statement that likely now secures his confirmation does nothing to abrogate Trump’s rights in the slush fund and perpetuates the outrageous tax amnesty for Trump and family, which the American people are paying for without getting anything in return. It’s all lip service and a travesty.
