2020, the election campaigns have begun

Co-opt & Corrupt: How Trump Bent and Broke the GOP | by Ruth Ben-Ghiat | The New York Review of Books

I don’t think Trump bent and broke the GOP, because the GOP was already bent and broken, and it started showing its fascist turn with Gingrich’s Contract with America. Trump just took them where they were heading anyway faster.
“We can never undo what we have done. We can never go back in time. We write history with our decisions and our actions. But we also write history with our responses to those actions. We can leave the pain and the damage in our wake, unattended, or we can do the work of acknowledging and fixing, to whatever extent possible, the harm that we have caused.”
