Seattle, Army vet, YIMBY, avowedly anti-Trump
Yeah i’m with you here. Based on my anecdotal experience in the Army, a lot of guys I knew liked the subways and trains in Europe, Japan, and Korea, but couldn’t imagine it in America. Like literally, they couldn’t picture it.

So their “preference” was in part because of a lack of imagination.

there is not a single Republican legislator who is a worse person than Trump is and whatever remains of each of their consciences has been sublimated to his whims for a decade now

“Cool Zone” is a time period that’s fun to read about, but shit to live in, right?

Heritage, for its part, was so upset about this reporting that it threatened to sue Vox to try and stop publication. But we are confident in our source and our reporting.

Here's a gift link to the piece that Heritage tried to kill www.vox.com/on-the-right...
The toxic culture behind the right’s civil war
A Heritage insider alleging “openly misogynistic and racist” conduct shines a light on the right’s inner workings.

What makes a banana republic a banana republic is not any prosecution of the outgoing administration, but baseless, politically motivated prosecution. There is a whole literature which teaches that, if crimes against the public order occurred, failing to prosecute them hastens democratic decline.
