A scary quote for the GOP on Trump and tariffs

[Zorro]

What if Trump is willing to go down with the tariff ship -- and take his party with him?

Perhaps the most infamous quote Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) ever offered about Donald Trump came in May 2016.

“If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed,” Graham said, “and we will deserve it.” The Twitter post remains live to this day, nearly nine years later.

Despite Graham’s warning, this marriage of convenience has more or less worked out for him and his fellow Republicans. Trump is now a two-term president, and Republicans control both chambers of Congress.

But the relationship has constantly been a fraught one — one in which Trump holds just about all the cards and seems to care about his adopted party only insofar as it can help him.

Of course they will follow Trump to the bottom of the sewer -- and drag the country down with him, destroying all that once made the USA the envy of the world. Trump is their leader and is doing what they want to be done to mould the country into what they want it to look like, and it ain't pretty.

Republicans hate democracy. In the marketplace of ideas and policies to resolve our social needs and desires, their positions are unpopular with the voters. So they resort to lying, cheating, and suppressing votes to win so they can inflict their agenda on us all.

1. The GOP has sold out their country, and will stand by and watch it be destroyed.

How they can look themselves in the mirror I don't know.

3. Good point. Nothing to see in the mirror. It is night of the living dead.
