My latest post is now out.

My latest for the Guardian, in which I cite Lee Atwater, and bring lots of receipts.

"Brave Republicans who would stand up to Trump have gone. They're no longer in the Senate, and the ones that are left are scared for their lives. I would hope that my colleagues would put the safety and security of the nation above their own political survival."
