Coo-Coo Ca-Choo, Mr. Robinson

It’s a mind-boggling possibility: that after everything that’s happened in the last decade, after all his own intolerable scandals, the thing that ends Trump’s political career could be the grotesque behavior of some other random guy. Not getting the Capitol ransacked, not going gaga for the world’s biggest autocrats, not embracing the worst and most toxic elements in American politics—just elevating a guy who happened to be a comically racist sexual degenerate. 
But there’d be a poetic justice to it all the same. Robinson is the monster Trump created. Now Trump has to survive him.
It’s always the last scandal that’s the last straw. And you never know when that’s coming, or what it’ll be.
