Cheney on Trump: 'He's going to unravel the democracy to come back into power'

Well, we all know he's a democracy-poisoning snake. Even THEY (McCarthy and McConnell and all of them) know that. Even many of his Trumpers know that.

But they don't care. I don't know why they don't care-- why they think this wreck of a rich man is worth such a cost.

And with McCarthy, it's not even personal adoration he feels to Trump. It's just the craven desire for the temporary power that he gets from being within Trump's fumes.
