      In the constitutional crisis of Trump, America needed the vice president to keep himself clean. Mike Pence failed his country https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2019/10/mike-pences-role-ukraine-scandal-disgraceful/599449/ …

      The problem is that the larger GOP is much more tarnished by Trump than 1974 GOP was by Nixon.

          The GOP has such a weak candidate that they stick with him even when he admits he can’t win an election without cheating. Or, they're in on the take.

          Deep down, Republicans in power know that if the situation were reversed, and a Democratic President had committed such stunning betrayals, Dems in power *would* support impeachment. Yet they dig in their heels. Almost as though they've decided integrity itself is partisan.

          I think this take is correct about the GOP generally but looking directly at the VP position Agnew is probably worse than Pence.

          Yeah, and no pardons this time. If there are no real consequences, people will never regain their faith in government.

          Hmmm. I wonder if the LaPierre telephone conversation is also on the classified server? The one right after LaPierre returned from Russia.

          in a way, it's representative democracy at work - since first Fox News fed voters alternate facts and then Trump won their total allegiance. Problem at this point is with the voters, wouldn't you say? Although leaders can still lead and go against the voters.

          The problem is the media keeps ignoring that the Republican Party has become a full blown Criminal Organization & has been in bed with Russia for years now. Forest man, Forest 🌳- forget the Tree Branch.

          I agree. But sociopaths are everywhere, even in the Democratic party, they just haven’t been outed yet. It’s all scary, we have to be very educated about them and stay vigilant.
