Trump’s Position in the Republican Party

I love this, from British writer Nate White.

My mom dismisses my continuing interest in Trump as “silly,” claiming that he no longer represents the Republican party.

True, the degree to which he represents the GOP is debatable. Tens of millions of American voters who call themselves Republicans are still completely devoted to him, having swallowed the Big Lie.

Congress has a similar story to tell, as many candidates in red states are terrified of the consequences of vocally withdrawing their support.

Moreover, his pulling out the stupidity and nastiness of so many Americans will never be forgotten, and will take decades to repair, if it can be done at all.
