        David Brooks needs to do his own soul searching; although he condemns the Palins of his party now, he enthusiastically gushed over her after the first debate (Biden-Palin).. the road to where we are now was paved by ppl like him who should’ve known better.

        Democracy requires vigorous debate bet even different points of view but all grounded in thoughtfully supported positions, strong values, a commitment to excellence and mutual respect.

        Excellent, except it started much earlier than Sarah Palin. It was Reagan who make open self-interest at the expense of others okay.

        Wars of appeasement never end well for the appeasers, ask Poland circa 1939.

        It seems bad that people like David Brooks are resigning themselves in advance to Trump firing Mueller and the GOP being OK with it.
