If you think Trump actually likes or cares about Amy Coney Barrett I have an phony online university to sell you. The frightening thing about this nomination, as it is with all the others, is that the "heroes" you think are anti-Trump on the right are all into this. They love it.

Trump is merely a vessel, and has been since day 1, for right wing extremism. We lived through 8 years of this with Bush and we're living through it again albeit with a guy people loathe so much they overlook the similarities. He's a puppet, for sure -- for conservative america.

your boys at the lincoln project, mitt romney, the mccains - they love this shit. they live for it. and *that* is why Trump is so dangerous. Because he serves as a distraction from the thing we hated and always will hate (and should hate): conservatism.

susan collins and mitt romney and rick wilson and all the other sickos out there with actual financial and moral incentives to support a person like ACB are silent or supportive of this nomination. treating this like a normal moment in a normal presidency. why is that?

the answer is because they don't care how they get there. they just want to get there. that's why why none of this matters until we start looking beyond trump. half of this country and half of our politicians are evil. Straight up, undiagnosed malevolence.
