It only takes a moment like this for decline to begin and the rot to sink in if not re-addressed.
There was nothing more disturbing than seeing a senior Scout Master on stage chortle away as trump said such derogatory things about other citizens.

How can they ever hope to host an International Jamboree again in the US?
Trump is a walking talking disaster and everything he touches begins to rot. The Republican Party is a prime example and it's only take a year.
