Servile Row

How do we characterize the Republican brand these days? Dominance and submission have everything to do with it. They don’t understand you don’t have to live there. They don’t understand you can opt out and transcend it, that it doesn’t have to be that way.

For them there are only screwers and screwees. You have to be in one of those camps and, ultimately, everyone is a screwee. Again, Trump is instructive. He’s the ultimate screwer, it would seem, but look a little deeper and you see he’s more fucked than anybody.

He’s being screwed by a dead man, his daddy. There’s no escape. So you see it’s all compensatory. Republicans are trying to get even. They’re trying to feel better about themselves because they know they’re shit. Let’s take them at their own assessment on that.
