The GOP has been radicalizing their base for a long time. They found a leader in tRump that the base would rally around. They didn't' count on him taking over and now they're afraid to cut him loose because that very same base will turn on them. I'm just surprised that none of them are crazy/stupid enough to strap on suicide vests, yet.

The "Vocal"....""Wingnuts"" have been around for many years. Fueled by the AM radio angry man shows and conspiracy driven programing. FOX News helped too! Let's not forget them.

I see it starting in earnests with Bill Clinton Presidency.

Tea Party Birthers morphed devolved into MAGA after all. Q has been adding the fuel to the Zombies helping grow the Army of the Cult.

On May 6, NARA emails Trump to say government documents are missing and may be at MAL.

On May 9, Trump gets on a private plane from Palm Beach to Bedminster. On avideo, eight boxes identical to those seen as FBI evidence in the MAL raid are seen being loaded on the plane.

The FBI should be serving another search warrant on Bedminster IMO.

In a nutshell, a perfect summation Ricky.

Be careful what you wish for, GOP thought that a wink and a nod to Trump's base will consolidate their power (the raised fist by Hawley is glaring proof), except the base has morphed into a cult with an out of control Trump as their leader. Stealing of classified documents and government secrets is the pinnacle of an out of control idiot. Like what did he expect?

Trump and the MAGA cult is like a forest fire, one cannot put it out without getting severely burnt and the only option is to run away like Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. But most won't, power is very addictive.

Trump would carry secret records in his jacket pocket, risking them being seen by staffers without clearance, former press secretary says

Yesterday.

What a shady bunch of crooks that the GOP have made their daddies. That looked like a bunch of Escobar's narcos in Medellin loading up.

Watch Jared Kushner Wilt When Asked Repeatedly Why Trump Was Hoarding Top-Secret Documents
Once again, the Brits show us that the key is to ask the same question, over and over, until you get an answer.
