“What Republicans have managed to do is redraw the boundaries of the acceptable until lies and corruption and gutter racism and bigotry of every kind is their shared acceptable standard.
It is in this they have effected a sort of death of shame—by making shameful things acceptable and acceptable things shameful.

If you can't shame them, is the thinking, you've got to join them.
What's the use of trying to shame the unshamable?”
