    Could be at the “If I help Trump now, I may be prosecuted later” phase. It becomes harder for Trump’s bribes to work, and people are more likely to record evidence against him. Higher risk phase for the fascist regime.

    Complicity will tend to correlate with the belief Trump can be successful in getting a third term. Believer will stand by him, doubters will refuse.

      Gotta show that you’re not afraid to turn against the regime from time to time to keep the asking price high.
