Trump has betrayed the country, dozens of times.
Even worse, every bad actor on the planet knows he can be bribed. And it's cheap, all NK had to give him was a photo op. It cost the Saudi a billion or two, but to them, that's chump change. We've betrayed our allies a number of times, in a number of ways. Just coincidentally most of it is music to Putin's ears. You know what FDR said about coincidence in politics? It's not coincidence.
But it's not happening just outside the country, as nightmarish as that is. His tax cut will do us long term damage, and nearly all of it went to rich people like him. Especially him.
DeVos is betraying our kids. He will keep trying to kill people by killing Obamacare. He betrayed the very core of our values by throwing tens of thousands of children in prison, often causing them severe psychological damage. There's lots more, but I am feeling nauseous.
Republicans have long had the best propaganda in human history. I've known about since it started in the 1980s. But I often underestimate the damage it can cause. You can see it in the polls. The lies, the "false narrative" is working. Lindsey is about to do another Bhengazi style smear about it in the Senate. The normal process, the learning that happened in Watergate, for example; has been distrupted.
Which is yet another betrayal that will one day have severe consequences for the country.
If you add it all up, Republicans act like the United States of America is a hostile power they must destroy.
This is exactly how a country gets a dictator. It's how Turkey got Erdogan, how Russia got Putin.
But I didn't think it would happen here.
