Well said. The fact that all these quisling Republicans are more terrified of alienating Trump’s “base” than of undermining democracy itself is unnerving to contemplate. Will Trump be like Hitler, who after serving a prison term for a failed coup d’etat, rose rapidly to power by creating a cult following of die-hard fanatics and thugs who staged huge rallies and terrorized their opposition? The historical parallels are unsettling, to put it mildly!
