He’s been indicted twice. Found liable for sexual abuse. And he’s viewed unfavorably by about a third of his party. But six months before Republicans begin to choose their next presidential nominee, former President Donald Trump remains the race’s dominant front-runner.
Cool so they don’t care about how fascist their policies are, they just want someone who’s better at implementing them. Great.

This has honestly been something that progressives and moderates have been worried about since Day 1. Trump is dangerous because he erodes the political and social norms around the democratic process in the US. Now that he’s blazed the trail, if someone smarter with the same racist and regressive policies reaches to power, we’re totally boned. Especially with the courts packed with Republican-nominated hacks and the state governments in large part controlled by R’s due to the gerrymandered districts (and to a lesser extent, the House, too).
