We’ve just seen so many examples of what should have been HUGE scandals just not resonate at all. To the point that by the end of the week I’ve forgotten about what he did back at the beginning of the week.

The other aspect of this is how long will an issue resonate with certain people though. I was shocked this summer when so many mainstream white people (and even some conservatives that I know) were saying they now understood BLM. But that stopped resonating pretty quickly for some of those people as soon as they saw football players kneeling again. So yeah, this tax story seems to be big now, but my guess is that depending on how tonight’s debate goes, and whatever the next scandal is or the next issue 45 manufacturers, the tax thing will be mostly forgotten about by the election.
