Pointed quotes, part 2

From Jennifer Rubin, in:

Two senators do backflips to protect a racist president

"First, many GOP lawmakers now consider lying in defense of the president to be routine, part of their normal duties as card-carrying Republicans. They don’t care that it makes them look foolish to those with eyes to see and ears to hear. They, like Trump, now operate in the populist bubble that depends on protecting Trump and reaffirming their bond with the base on behalf of white grievance. For Perdue and Cotton, defending the preference for immigrants from richer countries — i.e. whiter countries — requires they not concede that this, at bottom, is about race."

Like I said in the last post about pointed quotes, it's the Republicans' fault.

In this case, it's obvious.
