Great analogy, great column. However, I do disagree with the main premise. I believe in my soul, that body blows are not enough; a knockout IS necessary. Trump and MAGA are like a colony of fire ants led by a mad queen. You can try multiple methods to get rid of them, but if you don’t kill the queen, the colony will just move to another spot. Now, in no way am I condoning an assassination or any other violence, only that Trump must be rendered useless and seen that way by his followers for this to be over. The mass protests now are a great start. A blowout win by the Dems, and taking back the House in 2026 would be even better, setting the stage, once again, for a consequential election in 2028. I know it has been said before, in 2020 and 2024, but 2028 is REALLY the last chance this country has to remain a constitutional republic.
