Paul Krugman Says Trump is a Horror but a Horror Made Possible by GOP Corruption

[guillaumeb]

From the article:

In a series of tweets, Paul Krugman tackled Republican reluctance to hold Trump accountable for the Flynn scandal, explaining that while “Trump is terrible” his is a “horror made possible by GOP corruption and lack of conscience.”
Obviously, a Republican-controlled Congress sympathetic to Trump’s pro-Wall Street and corporate policies will be willing to overlook much to get what they want, even treason, for as Krugman says, “Treason in the defense of tax cuts is no vice” for Republicans

And it is not just GOP Congress members, it is GOP voters who are willing to overlook the treason. The same GOP politicians and voters who were so obsessed with emails and Benghazi are willing to ignore actual treason as long as the rich can get a little bit richer.

2. But they can leave it to their children.

Assuming of course that Big Oil does not ruin the climate.

3. He is their poster child

literally - but they don't care as long as they can loot the treasury

4. One can never be too rich.

Or too shameless.

And now the GOP thieves will apparently refuse to meet with their constituents. Preferring to meet exclusively with their donors.
