"Campaign in poetry. Govern in prose." Mario Cuomo would be rolling over in his grave. Donald Trump's assault on our political process has never seemed as unhinged as in recent days. Maybe it is attributable to becoming his party's putative nominee without breaking a sweat. Maybe it is the criminal process almost grinding to a halt in its pursuit of him. Or maybe instead it is his response to the relentlessness of the posse still chasing him. Whatever the predicate, he has most recently unleashed a torrent of venomous words, a fury that is virtually beyond comprehension. Even for him.
This is the most dangerous time for our country. The threat is not just Trump, who is an idiot on his best day. The real threat is the wholesale take-over of the Republican party and life appointments within our government by a group of people bent on destroying the public's trust in our institutions. The withholding of future campaign funds from anyone who doesn't think and behave a certain way can only be halted with the public's awareness of what is at stake. No amount of slow congressional oversight can succeed in ferreting out where the money is coming from. Republican talk radio, an evil version of "Radio Free Europe" , must be offset or it will upend all that is great with this country--RE
