(2,430 posts)2. So interesting that the press is finally starting to catch on...
All of this was completely predictable! The dominoes began to fall way back in the Bush administration...maybe even before that! But when the rump was president, they didn't even try to hide their strategies. They got rid of any administration officials that weren't suitably loyal to the rump. It was simply not acceptable to put country first! Now he's not even president and members of the Rump party are using the same tactics in Senate approvals, school boards, elections boards. It's all about loyalty to the Rump! We have to get local and we have to get loud too!
