Now, by letting testimony from Republicans, most of them from TrumpвЂ™s own orbit, tell the tale, the January 6 hearings are powerfully demonstrating the importance of unpacking the real events that prompted the insurrection, and the very real crimes committed and condoned by Trump & Co. Obviously I was wrong (not unprecedented). The day after January 6, I suggested Trump and Trumpism was destined for a similar fate that TrumpвЂ™s madding crowds, including hordes of sycophantic Republican politicians, would begin to oh so conveniently forget how in thrall they were to Trumpism, and hope that everyone else would politely not remind them of their, well, dishonor.ДЄnd on the day after January 6, shocked and stunned by what weвЂ™d all seen, I assumed the GOPвЂ™s convenient never-mindism with respect to their full-throated embrace of Trump and Trumpism was already starting. Their new position on AmericaвЂ™s runaway war on terror: Never mind.

Going on two decades since Republicans, assisted by Harry Reid, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Joe Biden and way too many other Senate Democrats, gave the Bush-Cheney crowd a blank check to go a-warmongering, most of the people who were so very hot for the war in the first place have now modified their strong and heartfelt passion about the issue. Things were super ugly then, too, you see.

The war was what defined Republicans and what they believed in, and if you didnвЂ™t agree with them then as far as they were concerned you were soft on terrorism and didnвЂ™t support the troops and were anti-American. Just as the GOP is the party of Trump now, during the Bush-Cheney years it was the party of war. Many of the same people who have embraced TrumpвЂ™s Big Lie narrative вЂ“ not only Republicans in Congress whose вЂњ dishonor will remain,вЂќ as Cheney the Younger put it in the first hearing, but also a significant portion of the Trumpist electorate вЂ“ were the same people who exhibited fist-pumping excitement and enthusiasm for Cheney the ElderвЂ™s optional war of naked military aggression. Which naturally got me yet again thinking aboutвЂ¦ the January 6 committee hearings.ДЄnd that in turn naturally got me thinking aboutвЂ¦ Liz CheneyвЂ™s dad and the invasion of Iraq. For reasons none of them have explained, all of them promise that if you vote for them the price of gas will go down. A roguesвЂ™ gallery of conspiracy-pushing celebrity wannabes, grifters, and mere garden-variety windsocks hoping to locate a good-paying government job without the help of a moral compass вЂ“ all endorsed by or embracing Donald Trump вЂ“ won their primaries in Nevada this week.
