Without the 24/7 Trump coverage, I do think he would fade away as a loud sideshow clown nobody cares about anymore.  That is too much to hope for.  Also, where is that indictment, from the feds, NY, or GA?  I hope I do not have to repeat myself too much, but after the breathless promises, someone better be able to successfully prosecute, or Trump will be strengthened.  
I don't think Trump would be fading away since the majority of the GOP supports him, both in congress as well as in the republican electorate. 
I, too, wonder about the indictments particularity since the Georgia DA had announced indictments would be "imminent" and that was more than a month ago. Moreover, a most outrageous move by the GOP state legislature in GEORGIA, and reportedly to be signed soon by Kemp, is a bill designed to remove any DA they don't like and that is obviously targeting the DA investigating Trump for election fraud. It's an overt move to thwart justice in the state and shield Trump in the process of doing so. The sooner that DA acts on Trump the better or it'll never happen...

In fact let me just give you an order here, and tell you this.  

Don't ever mention my mother again, because if you know what's good for you, you'll go into your regular persona which is coward of the century who wouldn't know what to do if he ever ran into anyone whom he rubbed the wrong way.  

Do you understand that DS?  wink  smile
Oh, well, a thousand pardons. Let me change that to your sister's basement. You know, the one who saved you from covid by yelling at you to get vaccinated so you wouldn't wind up in a hospital bed like your brother in Texas...

I did get vaccinated and I still got Covid after I was vaccinated so... I guess that kind of indicates that the vaccine didn't work on me, just as it did not work on 10s of millions of Americans.  
For the obtuse one: it saved you from being hospitalized or death in much the same manner that the flu vaccine does the same even though many vaccinated people still get the flu but have milder cases of it.

I would have considered it. I have no idea what you said to me to cause me to say that to you, but you had your chance to tell me to f' off back then.  If you weren't man enough to do it, well....  wink

I certainly wouldn't have put up with that from me so why did you?   
Yeah Brian, it's your fault and Rich is the victim!!!

The state is open carry so the police, even if the saw yesterday's mass shooter walking down the street with her AR-15s, could not have stopped her until she opened fire...

CNN.... Wow, that Network is truly IN the toilet as far as ratings go.

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Some perspective on the topic of the thread:
"Fox News topped March ratings, but all of the major news networks saw double digit erosion from the same month in 2022."
"CNN saw some of the steepest declines, with it primetime audience down 61% from March of 2022, and dropping 73% in the 25-54 demo."
"One factor: The lack of a dominant news story. The Ukraine war dominated the news cycle in the same period a year ago, and CNN actually saw a viewership spike back then."
"While CNN beat MSNBC in the 25-54 primetime demo during the first quarter, it was edged out by the NBCU network during March."
"Meanwhile, a bright spot among new show launches is MSNBC’s Inside with Jen Psaki, which airs at Noon ET on Sunday. It averaged 1.06 million viewers in its second week, beating the competition on Fox News and CNN. In the 25-54 demo, it averaged 125,000 viewers, to CNN with 97,000 and Fox News with 140,000."
