To review, Donald Trump is a degenerate moron. He cannot be appeased. At some point in childhood he learned to amuse his father (the son of a pimp) by defying reality. Inherited money made it possible for Trump to create his own reality as an adult. Problems with reality were papered over with bluster, running away, bodyguards and a ton of cash. We are fortunate he never murdered anyone, unless you count 400,000 people lost to the virus he ignored.
In a somewhat parallel way, the Republican Party, which began its life by supporting working people, was taken over by big businesses. They patched together a voting coalition of religious maniacs, racists, self-hating women and murderous hicks, but the core purpose of the party remained financial: shifting money from the poor and middle class to the super rich.
Stealing for the super rich is not a winning platform, so the Republican leadership has had to lie constantly. These money creatures pretended to care about the fetus. They called Adlai Stevenson a pinko. And so on. Each election cycle, the Republican candidates became more extreme in order to win primaries, finally moving toward the tea party and now towards QAnon. Today they would call Stevenson a blood-drinking Satanic pedophile--and the current raging, out-of-control president has their support in his attempt to disenfranchaise the young people, the people of color and the women who voted him down.
