This monologue can be summed up with Bill Maher’s best applause line of the night.
“Our new cold war with Russia is different than the our old cold war with them. This time they have the White House on their side.”
The Republicans have not moved and inch from their original talking points on any of this. The problem is not Russia knee deep in our elections and our democracy. No, the more important issue is leaking classified material to the media. Especially the losers at WAPO and NYT.
There are two ideologies at play within the GOP these days. Though both have been with us since the end times began on January 20, 1981, they are now on steroids.
The Republican politicians giving the entire store to the wealthy and the free market which will solve everything.
And the herd of Republican voters who will suffer the corresponding loss of wages, jobs, health care, medicaid, air, safety, water, privacy and education just to give blacks, immigrants, Muslims, Mexicans, uppity women, gays, liberals, foreigners and anyone smarter than they are the finger. Sad. Bigly.
35% believe Trump is doing a very good job. As Bill Maher says, we need to build a wall around them.
