The boys of the hard right now renounce the oaths each took to uphold the Constitution, promote respect for the law, and help the process work — as new lawyers long ago.

Instead, they’ve chosen… disunion. Sowing cries for a new version of the Confederate States… to rise up. [See the idiot Bill Otis this morning, here as well. Somehow, he thinks “enforcing the law as written” is transmogrified… into Trump as the victim of some vast… conspiracy. Sheesh.]

This effort will fail; America is better than their lies — but the cowardice each exhibits… is shameful.

This is Scott’s, of this morning:

…The …trial bears seeds of alienation, discord, turnabout, and violence. That is the point buried in the clichéd metaphors. That is the implication of the conviction rendered in the… trial…

I often poke derisive fun at these feeble, feckless codgers… but not today. It is the GOP’s insistence on running a felon that leads to this moment; the boys’ own deliberate and… ongoing choice.

This sort of intentionally traitorous action deserves a swift, short rebuke — so this is just that.

Out.
