This is a great point. They have always used our innate goodness against us. They know they can push and push and we wont do anything.
The late and deeply missed Andrew Breitbart tried to shake us into understanding that we had to stop playing defense and get on offense.
Lo and behold, Donald J Trump shows up. (Andrew? Did you do that?). Suddenly, the paradigm did not shift, it exploded into tiny pieces that all of the worlds Crazy Glue cannot put back together. (Side-eye to you, Pierre Delecto).
Trump was a Republican, but he kicked tables over, punched hard, and broke all of the good China.
Some Republicans found their voices and felt empowered.
More cowered in corners and wet themselves.
Its always helpful when the trash takes itself out.
No matter what happens from here, the Republican Party is no longer saddled with the Country Club image. President Trump created a new populist Republican Party.

It was not part of their blood, It came to them very late, With long arrears to make good, When the Saxon began to hate. They were not easily moved, They were icy -- willing to wait Till every count should be proved, Ere the Saxon began to hate. Their voices were even and low. Their eyes were level and straight. There was neither sign nor show When the Saxon began to hate. It was not preached to the crowd. It was not taught by the state. No man spoke it aloud When the Saxon began to hate. It was not suddently bred. It will not swiftly abate. Through the chilled years ahead, When Time shall count from the date That the Saxon began to hate.
