The Republican Party is Now Extinct
I caught some of the Trump address at CPAC. The Conservative Political Action Committee is now extinct. It's now TPAC .............. the Trump Political Action Committee. Full of lies, miss-directions, half-truths, and innuendo. And, of course chants of "Lock Her Up."
I never imagined it would be so easy to jettison democracy for authoritarian governing. It shows how fragile democracy really is. All you really need is an under-informed populace and a celebrity reality show star.

Trump's "performance" at CPAC is an embarrassment to the Office of the President of the United States.

Re: The Republican Party is Now Extinct
Not only is the Republican party extinct, but the conservative movement has come to an end.
The Trump party is now anti-law enforcement, pro Russia, pro autocrat, anti-human rights, anti muslim, anti immigrant, anti-environment, anti-fiscal responsibility cult of personality. Reagan would not recognize it.
Conservatism has been replaced with a tawdry nationalism, and creeping fascism.

We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.
