Through evil design or outright incompetence, the incoming Trump organization could throw us into a real-world crisis. So far all we have is fragmentary information, deliberate bullshit, and our own imaginings to predict the future. Trump’s growing absurdity works to unify the sane opposition.

Here are real numbers: If it gets really, really, unmistakeably bad , internally or externally, it would only take the decisions of 4 Republican Senators or 20 Republican Congressmen to shut that crap down.

Yeah—we might have to rely on a handful of sane, patriotic Republicans.
