Trump is an unhinged, fascist demagogue leading a fascist party. He enthralls millions who see their lower selves and basest instincts reflected in him and are energized by that.

New in PN: A war criminal without a war

"We’re watching the flimsy justifications fall apart in real time. They can try to shift the blame. They can try to say that people clinging to wreckage for dear life are somehow an active threat. But in the end, it’s just murder."
A war criminal without a war

This is the story tonight. Every Dem who was in that room should be telling us what they saw.

Himes: They posed zero threat to anyone in the region, and we killed them.
Himes: It was exceedingly hard to watch. Even if you stipulate that it is a war, there is a very specific prohibition against killing individuals who have been removed from the fight. And there is no question that these individuals were removed from the fight.

I just want to stress that this has nothing to do with the rest of the chapter. She has an epigraph, a bizarre intro paragraph, a description of Britney Spears dancing in 2002 and then a section about Donald Trump promoting birtherism.
