The most alarming aspect of the past week is not Trump. He is doing exactly what he has always done.

It’s the way Republican elites have consolidated around him. Without them, Trump is just a ranting loser. With them, he’s a threat to the country.

The crisis isn’t Trump. It’s the Republican Party.
Anne Applebaum wrote the book on why people choose to collaborate with authoritarian regimes. So what does she think of the GOP?

1. Main rotter is Moscow Mitch. He's terrified Trump will nuke those 2 GA runoffs and thus take away

his Majority leader status in the Senate.

2. Republicans have been a growing threat to our democracy for the past 40 years. It keeps getting

worse every election cycle, sometimes every news cycle. Republicans hate our government, hate more than half of the population of America (democrats), and hate having to spend tax dollars on anything except that which enriches their donors.

4. The Republican party is the pile of bullshit on which Trump's turd blossom has taken root.
