Cheney's endorsement defines maga far outside even the extremes the anti-constitutional Bush admin practiced
...that's the point of embracing his endorsement.
It's a perfect storm of opportunity to cast Trump far outside of any acceptable politics, even republican political ideology, and provides a 'permission structure' for republican legislators and others looking for some way out of the maga madness after being cornered for some eight or nine years with an absolute madman.
We don't just want to gain power and control. We want to move our national politics forward into something more productive than just spending all our time parsing and parrying Trump republicans' sophistry and prevarications.
We now have the opportunity to take away the republicans' most effective con; their success in dividing American into the Civil War symbolism of red and blue states, as if only republicans lived in the red ones, and only Democrats in the blue.
Don't boo at our now aligning nemesis because of the turbulent past. Unite and vote for the future! That's what makes us a more perfect nation.
