It sounds absurd to say it, but America is in the process of choosing whether to be a white nationalist fascist state or an inclusive democracy. That's not hyperbole, that's just where we are.
The president clearly doesn't feel the law applies to him, and most of his party is prepared to go along with that. Trump, and much of the party do not seem to believe that all Americans are equally legitimate citizens.
So you have selective enforcement of the law, efforts to limit the franchise of some groups but not others, etc. Now there seems to be an explicit legitimization of extralegal violence, provided it is committed against the "inauthentic" Americans.
Increasingly, there is nothing of substance to Republicanism other than support for Trump. I could go on. I'm reluctant to say that this is where we are, but this is where we are.
