Electing a bankrupt real estate salesman to be the president of the United States was a bad idea because his core skill set was limited to shameless cheating in order to get a larger loan and a bigger sale.

People who still don't get it are hopeless. Fortunately, there are fewer of them than two years ago.

It is remarkable that the chief strategists of the two previous presidential campaigns (McCain-2008 and Romney-2012) have left the party of Trump and speak about it with moral clarity.

29 years and nine months ago I registered to vote and became a member of The Republican Party which was founded in 1854 to oppose slavery and stand for the dignity of human life. Today I renounce my membership in the Republican Party. It is fully the party of Trump.

I’ve help elect 30-something Republican Senators and governors, five presidential campaigns and seeing the RNC tweeting about “winning”hours after a massacre of Jews in America makes me sick. What is worth this? https://t.co/nApuDOfVu9

But the list of public figures like that is very short. Unless the party suffers a humiliating defeat, the march into the abyss will continue.
