I don’t like it, but I get it. What’s genuinely worrisome is how quickly the *entire* Republican Party lined up behind Trump, in spite of his shady dealings; his infantile, sexist, racist and boorish behaviors; his flat-out hostility to a free press; and worst of all, his utter incompetence.

These are the SAME Republicans who were screaming that Obama was “trampling on the Constitution!”— and that was just during an ordinary day. The craziness that Trump and his lieutenants advocate is not only antithetical to the Constitution, it’s killing democracy. They’re licking their chops over having the entire country bend to their twisted will.

Republicans appear to be overjoyed with their fascist dictatorship— it’s as if they’d been hoping and waiting for it all their lives.

Thanks for your kind words, Yeehaw. And a very belated welcome to DU.
