The problem is that it's like people keep realizing that, and noting it, and then a few days later forgetting, treating the guy like he's the center of the universe, and then later once again realizing how impotent he is.
And repeat.
Trump has been impotent for a long time.
I sure wish we'd stop forgetting, and especially, I wish we'd stop treating him in a way that makes him feel big and important.
It's the only way he's going to really go away.
