The GOP began embracing elements and actors decades ago who had contempt for genuine democracy when it didn’t help their agenda.

They have made deals with many such groups over the years. The Republican party is fully a vessel for these interests.

The GOP is an inverted political party.

Rather than gaining power by asking segments of the electorate for their support, they cynically attempt to “manage” democracy, by manufacturing a loyal voting bloc through emotional/psychological manipulation, and disinformation. https://twitter.com/clearing_fog/status/1226315980172754944
It’s important to understand that Russia didn’t just unilaterally attack the U.S. in 2016. They were *invited* to attack our elections by the GOP (the RNC was in the loop on the wikileaks dumps).

The GOP made yet another desperate “deal with the devil.” https://gregolear.substack.com/p/the-ukraine-thing-a-timeline-of-gop
A watershed of Trump’s legacy will be that he publicly exposed the Republican Party, in this desperate gambit for total power, for what it already was.

Perhaps that is why many GOP members so desperately wanted to prevent Trump from becoming the nominee.
