Trump said it himself: "No republican will ever win an election again...." to paraphrase, if fair, honest elections ever become the norm. And he's right, which explains why trump tried to steal this one and the republicans in the congress let him. Encouraged him. Egged him on with their 147-member strong votes to ignore process and urinate on the pillars of Democracy. Ignored months of lies, breathtakingly reported by a compliant press (with a few notable editorial dissenters trying their damndest to scream into the darkness), but alas, the cowards will have their way, protect their well moneyed and powerful careers, for themselves, themselves, ...Not the people they represent. Vilifying Democrats is their only path to the only thing that matters to them. If the press knows this, then This is the only story that should be on the front pages on the banners across tv screens, everywhere. Or else the fascists will have us by the throats, paying their freight, all the while laughing all the way to the bank.

Excellent piece. I’m with Charlie. After all, it was Ronald Reagan who proclaimed the dawning of the new anti-government GOP. Who thought he was kidding?
