Quote of the Week
Amid all the turmoil of this past week, I believe this quote by Joe Klein is the most cogent.
There is so much flak that gets thrown up every single day that we can sometimes miss the big picture. And the big picture is that there is no area of public life that holds good options now for Donald Trump and his mob. They have spent all their capital and are now operating on fumes. They are in the final months before elections and they will clearly not be able to stop them and hold power. Though the wreckage is burning and the smoke is in our eyes we have to be able to see the larger truth: that the dictatorship was not consolidated. He and his band of fascists made war on this country and they did not win. The resistance is getting stronger and has spread deep into public opinion, in parts of Congress and, now, the Supreme Court. He is in rapid physical and mental decline, which is preventing him from understanding what he needs to do to save the midterms. And it is now too late. Regardless of anything they do, so long as we stay vigilant and active, they are blocked and doomed.
