Is he really an outsider, though? I think not. I remember seeing him on tabloids in my youth, in the 80’s. This man was groomed, just like the rest of the bunch.
This is all just one massive LARP. As I previously mentioned, the elites of their times — have been doing this for thousands of years.

All good points.
I was speaking broadly, and just overall saying I haven't seen anything yet that seems unprecedented. Not to the point it's being proclaimed with the evidence we have.
The problem that the left has, is that they conflate Trump with what most of us want. We really don't care about Trump. We want (for the most part) his policies.
Most of Americans want the Constitution and Bill of Rights followed.
Most just want to be left alone, work, support our families and drink a beer at the end of the day.
Most of us hate wars, drama, infighting.
We want lower taxes so we can have more money.
We want government to deliver the mail and secure our borders and to fix our roads.
Everything else is just fluff.
Trump’s Defenders Have Plenty of Lame Excuses

who cares? the whole damn show is a gigantic Bian lian theatre. plus ca change, plus everything stays exactly the same. the system has to be rebuilt from scratch. the personality cult has failed, and has no place in any final utopian society. politics is dead. long live politics.

So this guys conservative pedigree is impeccable which may or may not matter to any one of you reading.
I doubt it means anything to Trump cultists. Trump isn't conservative. The GOP isn't conservative anymore. Both of them are about as far from fiscally conservative as you can get.
The entire right wing is no longer conservative, in name or anything else. They are Trumpian.

LOL if they proceed with this new lower standard there will be impeachment hearings every two weeks for future presidents.

Good point. The Trump supporters are going crazy with fear at this point, clawing at the walls and foaming at the mouth. They cannot believe that the Orange Man Bad" meme is really true, and that impeachment is actually happening. He is going down hard, as 40 senators have already said they will vote for removal.
All that is left to do is some paperwork, and then Trump is behind bars.
ETA:
Grounds asserted for impeachment have included possible violations of the Foreign Emoluments Clause of the Constitution by accepting payments from foreign dignitaries; alleged collusion with Russia during the campaign for the 2016 United States presidential election; alleged obstruction of justice with respect to investigation of the collusion claim; and accusations of "Associating the Presidency with White Nationalism, Neo-Nazism and Hatred", which formed the basis of a resolution for impeachment brought on December 6, 2017. Since the Republicans controlled both the House and the Senate during 2017 and 2018, the likelihood of impeachment during that period was considered by all to be a partisan fantasy.[8][9] A December 2017 resolution of impeachment failed in the House by a 58–364 margin.[10] The Democrats gained control of the House in 2019 and launched multiple investigations into Trump's actions and finances. Speaker Nancy Pelosi initially resisted calls for impeachment. In May 2019 she indicated that Trump's continued actions, which she characterized as obstruction of justice and refusal to honor congressional subpoenas, might make an impeachment inquiry necessary. An increasing number of House Democrats and one Republican were requesting such an inquiry.
Care to make a friendly wager on that?
He must have a ton of Leftist shill money after all the hysterical threads I have seen by him.
