I wonder how a human being finds themselves in that chair in front of the watching world in a moment of such gravity, so completely bereft of empathy, so seemingly unencumbered by other people’s suffering, and so strident in the face of accountability...

Wow — somehow we completely missed Republican State Senator Page Walley (R-Savannah) condemning Trump’s racist post depicting the Obamas as apes.
As far as we can tell Sen. Walley is the only elected Republican in Tennessee to do so.
