None Dare Call It

It seems trite to me and a little too obvious to call Trump a tyrant but nothing else fits as well. He's a tyrant working within a system that isn't yet a tyranny but it's very alarming how readily Republicans have sold their souls and swallowed their pride and lined up to pay homage to his power--if not intentionally to the man himself, a distinction without a difference. 

For all their wailing about political correctness the right-wing crazies have benefited from it for decades. So, away with that. Let's call them what they are for once: rebels and traitors. They have been playing off the civility and timidity of Democrats and the press. To hell with that. Trump shows them for what they are. Republicans hate America. Republicans hate decency. 

Republicans are traitors.
