People dont seem to get this about a lot of Never Trumpers. Trump dislodged them from their comfortable DC social pecking order. They would have been perfectly content with a Bush, Rubio, or Cruz. Theyd bang a drum for Cheney.
Trump wasnt supposed to take over a party they largely felt they had some control and say in. They were the political equivalent of Instagram influencers. But the base moved on to a carnival barker, and theyre pissed about their diminished influence.
I love that she threw systemic racism in there. Like she ever gave a shit before. Shes just sniffing after the cash she figures shes likeliest to find nowadays.
I wish people wouldnt celebrate her. Its like the fawning over Steve Schmidt. I know he hates Trump for much the same reason. Lets have him as a friendly enemy until Nov. 3rd. But hes not some awesome genius of great insight and wisdom. This is the man who gave us Palin.
