There's something that's been bothering me about all this.

1: DJT spends months, urging us all to go to DC on the 6th, because "it'll be wild."

2: People go; he makes a lukewarm speech -- and then disappears until January 12!

3: On the 12th, he flies to Texas, utters some rambling platitudes about The Wall and unofficially concedes. All the old fire'n'brimstone Trump disappears; all the MAGA enthusiasm vanishes. The blazing Donald Trump of the rallies is gone, replaced by cowering irrelevancy.

What the hell happened to bring this about? Whatever it was, it was very sudden, literally within hours. He shows up on the morning of the 6th, and he's never the same man afterwad. Why?

Yeah, I know the popular theory -- "They threatened his family." And it's not unrealistic. But we don't know that; it's still just a theory.

I don't pretend to have an answer. I'm as in the dark as anyone.

I wonder if they threatened to harm us? Weird but who knows anymore?
