I know he’s trying to save his own skin, but I’m giddy that he is helping to take down the whole rancid clan.

Love that nomenclature: rancid clan.

A splendid article. When my children were young I once used the word rancid. They took this on and it became the term for anything unpleasant

I love family word games like that. With my folks, it was usually things we said when we were little that became family buzz words.

“Supporting Trump requires daily acts of moral distancing” — I see it that way, many others do, but the base Base doesn’t. That’s the big shock to me and the real danger. Their media tells them that anyone who says this is just a lying, amoral Liberal who wants to steal their freedom and replace it with Socialism. We’re really fucked, IMO. It’s fascinating and scary at the same time. As for Cohen, I think he did what he thought he had to do to save what’s left of his bacon. I’m not sure there’s any moral conviction there, but it’s a trustworthy motive.

Yep. 😦 I honestly hate everything that’s going on. Both “sides” disgust me. And everyone around me, all parties, we just DON’T talk about it because we value each other. It’s dangerously inflammatory.

Not my circus, but I love the way that Brooks ends with that powerful question, because every voter and non-voter plays their part.
