Donald Trump’s Insane Criminal Conspiracy

Charlie Sykes: “On Thursday we got a stark reminder that farcical fascism is still fascism.”

“Yes, Jeffrey Clark was a clownish Iago; the theories about Italian satellites were certifiably insane; Trump’s election lies were absurd and easily debunked; and the smoking guns are right there in plain sight. But even so, it was a damned close run thing.”

“The President of the United States was moments away from installing a seditionist crony as the nation’s top law enforcement officer and using the Department of Justice to execute his coup.”

“The line held. Thank God. But that line was thin, and it might not be there the next time around.”
