I think it's more than this. To rebuke Jones, Democrats desperate for an AG who will stand up to Trump would have had to sacrifice their own wellbeing in order to uphold norms of decent human behavior that MAGA spits on every day. Democrats are sick of being suckers.

BREAKING: Both Satmar factions decide not to endorse a candidate for mayor and decry the vicious campaign against Mamdani that paints him as hostile to Jews.
In letters to their community members, the Satmar leadership calls the attacks against Mamdani false and dangerous.

I think that the next step in the civil resistance campaign to Trump should be inflicting punishment on elites and institutions who cave. They need to understand that there are costs to compliance

It's fascinating that Trump seems himself so much like I do -- a self-styled monarch spraying the populace with shit. Are there other authoritarian leaders with such a drive towards desecration?
President Trump posted what appeared to be an A.I.-generated video on social media showing him wearing a crown and flying a jet labeled “King Trump” that dumps brown liquid on protesters. He shared the video on Saturday, the same day that protesters participated in mass “No Kings” demonstrations.
