I don't think any one thing is going to crush the GOP in 26 but weeks and weeks like this will wear people down and touch everyone at some point. People work in these sectors and use these things.

There are also fewer conscientious people in the cabinet to jangle keys in his face to distract him from following through on irrational threats like last time.
The reporting on this has been so weak . . .this is a MAJOR constitituional crises. Trump is essentially trying to become a dictator his second week and Republicans are just "meh, he won the election . . .snicker snicker"
Republican wins: "They have a mandate, the people have spoken, everyone needs to come together and allow them to implement their policy agenda."
Democrat wins: "It's time for them to unite the country and work with republicans to find a way to compromise and implement the republican policy agenda."
The fun part is that these apply even when the republican wins with a minority of the vote or the democrat wins in the largest landslide this century.
Somehow the MSM and the political establishment have become allergic to ever declaring Democrats have a policy mandate. Seemingly every Dem win, no matter how large, is due to special circumstances of the moment, personal factors, campaign quality, or possibly GOP blunders or overreach.

Frankly, this is why the "Deep State" is so important. It should be a bulwark against unconstitutional BS like this.
What is the deep state and how could it stop this?

Funny how “he won the election” never applies to Democrats
Republican wins: "They have a mandate, the people have spoken, everyone needs to come together and allow them to implement their policy agenda."
Democrat wins: "It's time for them to unite the country and work with republicans to find a way to compromise and implement the republican policy agenda."

Which is why Josh Marshall always repeats that "DC is wired for Republicans" regardless of media political registration.
The problem is more that Democrats are allergic to declaring that they have a policy mandate.
Democrat win: "The Democrat cheated and didn't really win. We need to take our government back by force".
Trump could literally hand the VA-GOV race over to Abigail Spanberger if he continues doing what he's doing as POTUS.
he's already done that
