For years a consistently reliable test to read which side of the them-versus-us cleft that would-be conservatives actually live on is the moral imperative of abortion. I have no doubt virtually all of these political jackals of Defending Democracy Together fall on the bloody side.

I think we should add a new test: where did these people stand on the issue of investigating all venality in Ukraine? It is clear that many rinos in the Senate have "put down their spears" and will continue to turn a blind eye to this rank corruption.

This corruption, described by Peter Schweitzer, is likely so persuasive that it poses an existential threat to the Republican Party. The hypocrisy of investigating only Joe Biden but no Republican is so glaring that it will leave the base as deflated in 2020 or 2022 as it was in 2008 and 2018, and for very much the same reason. The Democrats for their part have never been troubled about being hypocrites.
