Then again, the viewership may be disappointing because there's more pressing issues on Americans minds than holding Trump accountable right now.
To be blunt, we've been hearing bits and pieces about the insurrection for over a year now and are almost burned out on the subject.
It's not like it's going to be BREAKING NEWS.
Sure, I expect some new revelations will unfold showing how intricate the whole plot was to subvert our democracy. But this is just a show-and-tell event. No one will be indicted. That's up to the Department of Justice and from all implication's accountability is years away... if ever.
The unreal part to me is how the coup attempt is still ongoing. Outright traitors to the constitution are running for political offices and embedding themselves into state electoral systems in order to assure they'll be the winners - despite what the voters may say.
I feel like people are just watching our democracy die with a fatal resignation that the midterms are going to bring more chaos when the Republicans take the House, and or the Senate, in the midterms.
Political pollsters are predicting a red wall and a blue puddle this November. Nothing short of a miracle is going to change that unless the Democrats flip the tables and have a record turnout.
If that doesn't happen, we're on a slippery slope to a fascist minority ruling the nation.
Can telling the story about how close we came to losing our democracy still get anyone's attention? And how close are we to losing it this time around? I guess we'll find out in the days and months ahead.
