The result was the same: The vice president appeared clueless.<\/p>\n
He was among a perfidious group of political opportunists who pushed Trump\u2019s candidacy while having to know that he was intellectually, temperamentally and morally unfit for the presidency. They stuck with him as he mocked the disabled, belittled women, insulted Hispanics, libeled Mexicans and promiscuously promised the impossible and ridiculous \u2014 all that \u201cDay One\u201d nonsense like how the wall would be built and Mexico would pay for it.<\/p>\n
From most of the Republican Party comes not a whisper of rebuke. The congressional leadership is inert, cowed, scurrying to the White House for this or that ceremonial picture.<\/p>\n
For all of them, an accounting is coming. When they are asked by history what they did during the Trump years, the worst of them will confess that they bobbled their heads like dumb dolls, while the best will merely say they kept their heads down\u2026.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
He and a lot of other Trump minions better start lawyering up:<\/p>\n
