Sorry man, I just can't consider Trump the normal variation of a Republican or most of his administration.
The normal variation doesn't support and ignore an insurrection and keep lying about it. Or keep trying to make fake emergencies to send military into cities. Or threaten to use force on a peaceful country (Greenland) Or call dictators friends and accuse a country of being responsible for an invasion.
THAT'S NOT A NORMAL VARIATION. Not in my book. I can't even bother to go over all the other things.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
