Trump Must Go

Obviously, I agree with Andy (and with Bill Kristol) and many others: Trump should go. Of course, I never thought Trump should have been the nominee in the first place, in no small part because, as I wrote last night, I always believed the gargoyle on that tape is the same man we’ve seen all along. I’m honestly shocked by how many people are shocked by this “revelation.”

Already, Trump’s surrogates — official and unofficial — are demanding unity around the nominee. For instance:

@JonahNRO Republicans need to learn how to win- this is political warfare not the prom queen election. Dems stand behind theirs no matter!                                                                                                    — Autry (@Autry) October 8, 2016

Now, this line of argument hasn’t meant much to me this year. I’m not a Republican operative and it’s not my job to be a cheerleader, particularly when cheerleading would require lying. Party loyalty can ask too much and all that.

But, for a great many Trump supporters, party loyalty has been everything: “Remember the pledge!” “Support the nominee!” “The Court, the Court, Forever the Court!” “If you’re not for Trump you’re for Hillary!”

These exhortations are essentially the soundtrack of my year.
