Question: Who would want to hire a sex offender? Answer: Why, another sex offender, of course. Donald Trump was found legally liable in civil court of sexual assault and also by his own crude admission, as when he famously bragged about his predilection for grabbing women sexually. And now that he on the cusp of becoming once again the most powerful man in the world, Trump is fast settling into his comfort zone with his Cabinet picks. There's accused child sex trafficker and lewd photography afficionado Matt Gaetz who is slated to become Trump's Attorney General. And there's Fox news contributor Pete Hegseth, here showing off some of his white supremacist tattoos on his chest, ...and arm. Hegseth is accused of sexually assaulting one of the attendees at a Republican Women's conference in 2017, whom he later paid off to stay quiet about it. This is the man who Trump has nominated to be head of the U.S. Department of Defense. And there's Robert F. Kennedy Jr., denier of the benefits of vaccines and of fluoride in preventing tooth decay in children, but advocate of having children drink unpasteurized milk. Trump has chosen him as head of the Department of Health and Human Services and under whose jurisdiction will fall the Food and Drug Administration, Centers for Disease Control and the National Institutes of Health. Kennedy was recently accused by his children's nanny of groping and molesting her when she worked for his family several decades ago. RFK Jr.'s response to her accusation was: "I am not a church boy... I had a very, very rambunctious youth...I have so many skeletons in my closet...I'm not going to comment on the details." When asked if more women might come forward with accusations against him of sexual assault, Kennedy's response was, "We'll see what happens." A very Trumpian response if ever there was one. With several sex offenders padding his Cabinet - and, who knows? Mayhaps there will be more to come - Donald Trump and his pervy bros will doubtless feel quite comfortable with each other in their new digs. Women maybe not so much.

The sad thing is that most Trump voters could care less... If Trump announces on day #1 that he is suspending the Constitution and abolishing the judiciary, 50% of GOP voters wouldn't care. For anyone who thinks that is a ridiculous proposition, consider that 60% of GOP voters still think that the 2020 election was stolen...

What you say is far from a ridiculous proposition, Tony. (Have you seen this article in today's NYT?):
