      I see reaction to this column (based on my new book) divided between liberals saying “Duh, what took you so long” and conservatives saying “When did you go off your meds.” A sign of our widening partisan divide: what liberals think is obvious most conservatives don’t see at all.https://twitter.com/MaxBoot/status/1049451517907005440 …

      As I look back with the clarity of hindsight, I am convinced that coded racial appeals had at least as much, if not more, to do with the electoral success of the modern GOP than all of the policy proposals crafted by well-intentioned analysts like me. https://wapo.st/2y5YDaY

      There were those of who saw where the Republican Party was going a long time ago. The timeline of my deconversion ran from the crazy reaction of Republicans to Clinton to the Iraq invasion as the final straw. Actually, the Republican Party has descended far further than I feared.

          And it isn’t even pointed back to the horizon yet. Plumbing new depths every day.

          Sad, but true. This will not end well. I fear fascism. Before Trump, I had never feared that our democracy would break down and the US would become an authoritarian regime before, but I fear it now.

          Mid-'90s: Newt Gingrich combined with the introduction of Fox News. No one should underestimate the initial and ongoing role of Fox News "drugging" Republicans to excelerated extremism.

          My timeline was roughly the same, with 08 wrecking my final pillar: supply side economics.

          Why Tom Delay didn’t make you all wonder whether the GOP really represented your principles I will never understand. As a Democrat, I remember looking at the GWB/Delay party and thinking “Who ARE these people?! - def not conservatives.”
