This is the antithesis of leadership. It's simply following the crowd. And the money. And the Federalist Society. And all the other "think tanks" that give the word think, a bad name. And finally, they work together to split this country apart so that they can usher in an authoritarian that plays Putin's useful idiot. This is dangerous and it is wrong.
