The Midterms

This piece from Robert Reich reminds us of what a big ask it is of the American people to vote for Republicans in the midterms.

Sure, there are many hateful morons who love detention centers for people with brown skin, or believe that America is going communist, or that our elections are rigged (unless they are won by Republicans). Yet it seems unlikely that any of these positions of extreme ignorance will win the day.

Unfortunately, Trump knows this.  That’s why we shouldn’t be surprised if he tries to cancel the midterms or rip up the Constitution and nationalize them.
