Benedict Donald has tried to explain away his infamous dinner with that vile pair, Kanye West and Nick Fuentes — like, a hundred times. Or at least three. It was just supposed to be with Kanye! Trump didn't know who Fuentes was! But then he was allegedly impressed with him. What?
It is all ridiculous and would be laughable if racism, misogyny and anti-Semitism weren't involved.
Meanwhile, what has the Republican Party done in the last near-week since? Not much. But at least "not much" is slightly better than "nothing," which is what they were previously doing.
Finally, today, a few spoke up. The first to appear on our Twitter timeline were Senators Bill Cassidy, Susan Collins, and Willard "Mitt" Romney. Fine, but what took them so long? Is it because the RNC fielded a quick poll to see if their voters would be okay with demonizing Jews, denying the Holocaust, suppressing women, and hating on gays, people of color, and anyone who is not white, straight, Christian and male? (Betcha they did, and betcha it came back that yes, thank you, they'd be perfectly fine with it.)
So at this point, it would be reasonable to assume that every Republican other than Cassidy, Collins and Romney is wholly supportive of the leader of their party consorting with neo-Nazis and anti-Semites. Including New Yorkers Elise Stefanik, Lee Zeldin — and, of course, Carl Paladino. We cats HISS.
