Michael Cohen predicted Trump’s 2020 behavior during his Congressional testimony before reporting to federal prison. Too bad those, on both sides of the political divide, who could have headed ‘45 off — didn’t heed the warning.

All the non-MAGA folks in the administration who left between 2017 and 2020 and remained silent. Those who remained thinking they were guard rails against something worse — Cippolini, Esper, Pompeo and Pence — lead the second list.

What boggles my mind is the people in the commentariat class who decided that all the guard rails were just part of a corrupt Deep State that Trump was valiantly and righteously trying to clean up. They seemed to believe that he should get to do whatever he wanted, without limit, because he was "the duly elected president." Of course they would never apply the same principle to any Dem president.

People who should have known better made Trump himself into the measure of what's good and right.
