Republican Moderates Stand No Chance Against Trump
Yesterday, I had the good fortune to meet a retired Broadway actress who spent last summer in Ireland. She reports that, in many ways, the Irish are more troubled by Trump’s presence in the world than we are ourselves.
What’s at stake here is what could be summarized as “fair play.” The Irish aren’t too happy to see it disappear from the United States.
What’s happening to Liz Cheney is a fabulous example. Cheney says, “Their allegations do not reflect a review of the actual evidence, and are a malicious and cowardly assault on the truth. No reputable lawyer, legislator or judge would take this seriously.”
I guess we’re about to find out. Predictably, House Republicans have caved in to Trump and now support his vendetta against Cheney.
