This isn’t about Trump. He is a walking moral cesspool; a lumbering, empty, loveless husk of a human being, but he has never been anything else. He has existed so long in a cloistered, gold-plated palace of privilege where no accountability has ever truly come that his mind has become so corroded that the question of right or wrong no longer exists. His only impulse is self-preservation. The Republicans in Congress (and in the Supreme Court) who have enabled, defended, and preserved his ascension are far worse. They know better. They know he’s a pedophile and a rapist. They know he’s committed (and is still committing) high crimes against this nation. They know what he is doing with ICE is illegal, immoral, and unconstitutional. They know he is cognitively compromised and mentally unwell. They know that he is fully beholden to hostile foreign powers. They know every vile, grotesque, and illegal atrocity he has authored, and none of it matters. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p…
