i mean, he wasn't wrong about his prediction, but holy shit - do people even realise how crazy that shit is? that romney following his conscience (and all the evidence) and vote to convict would not only put his whole political career in danger, but even his very life and that of his family?
and just to confirm that, he was disinvited from CPAC, with the chairman matt schlapp publicly stating that he was afraid for romney's 'physical safety' during the conservative event.
could a party become more cult-like than the republicans under trump? like in a dystopian novel, it's quite literally 'support the emperor, or you're done for - no dissent allowed'.
cue the trumpapologists and 'reasonable' right wingers claiming "well, i'm not a big fan of it BUT... it's totally justified / not trump's fault / everyone would do this / not illegal / he deserves it..."
Thats the same way Obama worked though
