Keep It In the Road

Divagate is like watching political Motocross. On the left there's a big deep drop off that this is somehow a diversionary tactic to keep attention away from the passage of the "Big Beautiful Bill". On the right there's a big mountain of granite, "The Russians" orchestrating a coup (as if they needed anything more than what is already happening) and are somehow in cahoots with The Alt-Right in order to impeach Trump and get Peter Theil's boy in power. 
Even though the Vance Manchurian candidate conspiracy has some constancy, this glosses over what we know about both of these men: they are not deep; they are super ego divas who are so used to getting their way that they lash out whenever something doesn't work out for them; and that somewhere in the White House there's a bunch of professionals actually earning their keep, are cursing under their breath trying to manage yet another fiasco, and planning their next expose once they leave this administration.
Like just about everything that's been happening since January, there's not much we can do about it. Control your breathing. Hands on the wheel, keep it in the road and just enjoy the ride.
