The Republican Senate, House and Supreme Court will protect him and shield him in every attempt at consolidating absolute power that he can get away with.

Just last night, a standard German news broadcast hinted at this with a kind of “so what else is new?” kind of tone to the segment.

How ironic. Republican propaganda is at its most shrill when accusing us of being socialists and communists, and yet, their fanatical attempts at one-party rule (theirs, of course) resemble the worst excesses of socialist regimes of the last 100 years. And still, even today, they hold up a rabid pit bull to a mirror and claim to see a lamb in the reflection. It’s terrifying to contemplate how such an overwhelming number of Republicans continue to see the lamb, even as they rush to the clinic to get treated for their newly acquired dog bites.
