Loathsome as Trump is, he is a sufficiently gifted demagogue and con artist to have gained the loyalty of most Republican voters. As a result, Republican politicians who denounce him or propose to restrain him have been unable to win primary elections against opponents who propagate his confabulations. This grave problem would begin to fade away and our country would instantly be revitalized if Republican politicians – surely a majority of them – who are aware that Trump is grossly unfit morally, intellectually and temperamentally to be president were themselves decent enough to put country over party and right over wrong to say so.
