Today's news is not really surprising. It's been clear who the Trumps are for many, many years: he and his family are unscrupulous business people willing to take any advantage, no matter how shady or underhanded or illegal, in order to come out on top or earn an extra buck.
Everyone knew this when Trump entered the presidential race.
Everyone knew this when Trump won the Republican nomination.
Everyone knew this on election day.
But Republicans stuck together. And thanks to an incredible confluence of unlikely events and the vestiges of slave power, Republicans put Trump into the White House.
Never forget: Republicans did this. They liked it. It felt good. It made them feel alive.
And America will be paying the price for decades.
