In loosely related news... for anyone who might have missed this:

No one can imagine a Democratic president suggesting he can s--- on Americans with impunity. That would be a weekslong scandal. Yet reporters tend to shrug when Trump does it, because they accept as true the argument that Republicans are the only legitimate Americans.

[...] It's outrageous for the congressional Republicans to defend the video or pretend they don't know Donald Trump posted it. It's outrageous, moreover, for the press corps to bend over backwards to avoid describing in plain English what everyone can see for themselves.

I mean, "brown liquid"! Jesus God, c'mon.

Hey wait a second... are you sure he's not a Canadian agent? Destroying the White House... seems pretty Canadian.

But seriously---yes, and it's not just the Republicans, it's also much (most?) of the mainstream media.

OTOH there has been a little bit of Republican pushback on the federal gun registry and some other things... enough Senate Republicans have said they're going to vote against Trump's special counsel nominee (after leaked group chats revealed him saying he has a "Nazi streak" and using racial slurs etc.) that he probably won't be confirmed. Four Republican senators even criticized Trump's punitive withholding of funds to blue stataes. Other Republicans are at least worried that Trump's blatant corruption and other Republican ethics scandals will make it very difficult for Republicans to wiin the midterms (without cheating). And Senator Chuck Grassley is insisting on funding the courts despite the government shutdown, probably in part because they've been one of the few checks on Trump's abuses of power (when he deigns to comply... because he doesn't want to seem like too much of a dictator too soon---he wants to slow-boil the frog in shit).
