  • For me, this paragraph sums it up:

    _Several campaign officials had told me, throughout the spring and summer, how excited they were about working in the next Trump White House. Now those same people were telling me—as paperwork was being distributed internally to begin the process of placing personnel on the transition team and in the prospective administration—that they’d had a change of heart. The past three months had been the most unpleasant of their careers. Win or lose, they said, they were done with the chaos of Donald Trump—even if the nation was not. _

    They had to be right next to Trump to realize how toxic he is. How voluntarily blind can you be?

    They’re gonna save themselves (of course), but will they do anything to save the country from Trump? No, of course not, that would require a spine.
