'Vote straight-ticket Democratic Party -- the GOP needs to be razed to the ground'

Conservative commentator Max Boot called for the total destruction of the Republican Party to undo the damage by President Donald Trump.

The author and former Wall Street Journal editor appeared Monday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” to promote his new book, “The Corrosion of Conservatism: Why I Left the Right.”

“It’s hugely harmful to the long-term future of the Republican Party as America becomes less white,” Boot said. “The Republicans are being identified as the white nationalist party.”

Boot warned that was disastrous in political terms and wrong in moral terms, and the Soviet émigré blamed Trump for making racial hatred an overtly celebrated value in the GOP.

I don't live in Massachusetts anymore (moved several months ago) but I do like Charlie Baker.
