Yet Republicans in the MAGA era have embraced total shamelessness as a political weapon. That means Republican women gleefully exploit sexual violence, crying giant crocodile tears over rape and other gendered violence, when in reality, they do everything they can to screw over actual victims.

Strip away the politics and his biography, and any person who would spend time with the man would come to the same conclusion: he’s a sick person, devoid of any moral system beyond relentless self-aggrandizement. The self-interest colors his every interaction."

Trump and Orbán: The American right's most disturbing global alliance grows desperate From Heather "Digby" Parton: This alliance between Orbán, Trump and the American right is very disturbing. It's easy to dismiss a Hungarian prime minister as just some guy from a small European country who is punching way above his weight and isn't really relevant. But this is one of those moments when you really have to wonder if you aren't watching the beginning of a tectonic shift in the world order. The movement to appease Putin and force Ukraine to surrender has taken hold on the right and the threat to Western Europe that flows from that is very real. If Trump wins, the chances of a major escalation are very high. Trump and Orbán like to call that "peace" but it's actually just a demand for capitulation. That's what dictators do and that's what they are. [Read more](~/AASU4wA~/RgRn0rrPP0RoaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvcGMwaTJqaHVsci8_bGhfYWlkPTM1NDM5NTImbGhfY2lkPTl4NHNnc2Q3MHMmbGhfZW09dHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODUlNDBnbWFpbC5jb21XA3NwY0IKZe_RNfBlSxCdKlIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODVAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAo).
