QOTD -- Remember


Paul Waldman offers more on the topic of whether we've become numb to Trump's loathsomeness, and concludes with this segment on what to make of his collaborators:
...One of our great political parties selected as its champion the single most odious and immoral figure in American public life, then went to every length they could to defend him.

I have no illusions that Republicans will ever face the accountability they deserve for their tireless service to Trump, any more than he will face accountability for his own actions. But we can’t ever stop saying it, crying it, shouting it: This is who you gave us. You are complicit in all he is and all he has done. I’d say you should be ashamed, were it not for the fact that you’ve proved you have no shame.

History, at least, will remember — if we make sure it does. It’s not nearly enough, but it’s something.
More collaborators here.

BONUS: Steve M. at No More Mister Nice Blog has another recent example of the shamelessness of the Party of Trump and its media enablers.
