Thank you for your perceptiveness.

The “spineless” actions of Chief Justice Roberts is classic passive-aggressive behavior. He seems to give absolute authority to Trump … yet the final word is always his own (as he tries to reassert his Chiefdom).

What beguiles me is that Donald Trump - the compulsive liar, the epitome of crude and crass, the sexual abuser - has been set up as Master of the Master Race …

and Roberts, the behind-the-curtains puppeteer, as genial, bemused daddy.

Is this the best Republicans can do? Prop up a buffoon king? Is there no one on the right who can command - or even deserve - respect?

It's very McConnell of him, when you put it like that.
