Do zero Republicans feel any sense of shame at the hypocrisy? Lindsey Graham laid out the criteria when he led the impeachment of President Clinton. Just like Mitch McConnell laid out the criteria for approval of judges to the Supreme Court when he refused to let the Senate consider the confirmation of Merrick Garland. Through Trump's effective effort to foster distrust of the press, coupled with the power of news media that do not tell the truth, the institution in our country that is the first line of defense has been disempowered. Trump/McConnell court appointments will further erode the rule of law and the adherence to precedent.
The only thing I can hope for is a public reckoning for those who are destroying American democracy. I believe it will be our artists who will create the public memorials to this shameful time.
