Tom Nichols’ flounce is “both sides” horseshit that chooses to forget the continuity of bad behavior between the first time he left the GOP and the second, all of which is just an elaboration of existing bad behavior that created a bullshit impeachment and fabricated justification for a war. It follows the standard form by exaggerating the threat of the Democratic Party such that the Republicans have only just become the hazard, and lays everything at the feet of Trumpian vulgarity (rather than procedural fuckery and grossly antidemocratic ideological groups forming the base).

He’ll do well on the David Brooks and his team of David Brooks impersonator circuit, along with the other “Never Trumpers” who are simply waiting for an authoritarian that appeals to their highbrow aesthetic.
