Well then, they and the president have nothing at all to be concerned with, do they? I’m sure Team Trump and Trump himself will sleep well and peacefully tonight; and his tweets will reflect his inner tranquility. twitter.com/nytmike/status…

So we shouldn't believe Cohen because he has a history of lying but we should believe Donald Trump because...he has a history of lying? Of lying ceaselessly, relentlessly, pathologically; of lying morning, noon & night; of lying on weekdays and weekends...

This interview with @SenMikeLee on @hughhewitt's show is quite something -- esp the last 90 seconds where they're yelling at each other over whether they're acting like grown-ups

I had to place my father in dementia care today and drive away. I can only be there every couple of weeks so I taped this to his door. I want the staff to know who the new man in #14 truly is. pic.twitter.com/JLkeb1d3x7

Just to reassure younger Americans whose experience is more limited than the rest of us, this is not normal conduct for a president. It's actually not normal conduct for anyone. In Lincoln's words, "This, too, shall pass." But alas the damage he'll have inflicted is considerable. twitter.com/The_Trump_Trai…

Now isn't that interesting? Manafort seems quite upset by a story he claims is "totally false." Time will tell whether or not this one is. But what of Manafort's role in helping elect a president who's a pathological liar? Or do lies not matter when Trump/his side says them? twitter.com/woodruffbets/s…

According to Trump, he told GM, "You're playing around with the wrong person." Is this populism? Nationalism? It is not conservatism, as traditionally understood (in America). The U.S. president is not the boss of business. Conservatives should teach, and re-teach.

This is such a good point @jaynordlinger. What frustrates lots of us is the sense that what many politicians say in public is at odds with what they say in private; that what we see is often a show, misdirection, obfuscation. Party loyalty can be too stifling and corrodes candor. twitter.com/jaynordlinger/…

The old Religious Right wanted to acquire power in order to impose their morals. The new Religious Right were willing to abandon their morals in order to acquire power.

Hmmmn.. most powerful person in world uses his govt. bully pulpit to threaten a company making a business decision. I’m sure the pro free market enterprisers in the GOP caucuses will come down really hard on him. twitter.com/JohnJHarwood/s…

"that he has exaggerated for the sake of effect, that he has picked on a word and made a mountain out of a pea-he knows all of that & still he is the first to take offense, he likes feeling offended, it gives him great pleasure, & thus he reaches the point of real hostility.” (4)

"A man who lies to himself is often the first to take offense. It sometimes feels very good to take offense, doesn't it? And surely he knows that no one has offended him, and that he himself has invented the offense and told lies just for the beauty of it.... (3)

"And having no respect he ceases to love, and in order to occupy and distract himself without love he gives way to passions and coarse pleasures, and sinks to bestiality in his vices, all from continual lying to other men and to himself. (2)

From The Brothers Karamazov: “The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to such a pass that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. (1)

This piece by @jon_rauch, "How Star Trek Explains Donald Trump," is fantastic. Read it and you'll see what I mean.

"Race — whites vs. nonwhites — remains the biggest divide of all [between the parties]. But geography is by far the fastest growing, and now the urban-rural divide is almost as wide as the divide between whites and nonwhites." -- From @danbalz's column

So much vitriol in our public life -- from POTUS debating the CJ of SCOTUS on down to disputes about who does and doesn't get banned from Twitter -- concerns the longing for some authority to transcend politics, and the failure of everyone to succeed in doing that.
