Republicans predictably inspired, humbled, seduced and aroused by a 79 y.o. rapist felon bellowing for 107 minutes

Take whatever you're feeling after whatever you've seen or read about last night's "address" and flip that to the polar opposite, and that is the Republicans' post-speech take.

And because Trump's mental decline is daily fodder for the headlines, many of them went for the "IT WAS A MASTERCLASS" and "BEST SPEECH OF MY LIFETIME" stuff.

And he's right. Moe Trump is the leader of the Republican stooges.
