Trump ‘Disdainers’ Are Worse Than the Haters, But Equally Irrelevant
Trump is rising in the polls and has told the haters and the disdainers alike to stuff their complaints, bring on the impeachment burlesque, and he will see his enemies on Election Day.

While Donald Trump’s haters intrepidly maintain there are grounds to impeach the president, the mere Trump disdainers at times can be more tiresome, because they approve of Trump’s policies but do everything necessary to avoid being branded Trump apologists.
There is a slight redemptive quality in the helpless, irrational, and often demented fury of the haters. The current safe harbor of the disdainers is to nod smugly to each other on cable news panels while insisting the president and his defenders have failed in their effort to represent the Ukraine allegations as bunk and legally unassailable. Now the administration is left scrambling for excuses and technicalities.
This usually leads quite quickly to the idea that everyone knows the president’s “perfect†conversation with Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelensky was “wrong†but that there is some question whether it justified impeachment and genuine doubt about whether it would be just or appropriate to remove the president from office.
The disdainers love to imagine they can turn Trump on a spit while the flames crackle, although they know this whole exercise is essentially nonsense. It is enjoyable nonsense because they never imagined Trump could win. They regard him as a great political bumble bee who irritates them by buzzing endlessly and noisily about, stubbornly defying all laws of politics and nature by not falling down, politically dead at last.
