SKEPTICAL? OR AFRAID? Pro-Trump primary wins in blue states leaves moderate Republicans skeptical of red wave.

They're afraid, because those pro-Trumpers are so very, very scary....

To themselves, not to 'We the People'. It seems 'moderate' Republicans are milquetoasts1 who can't stand on their own two feet even with crutches and a cane. (And I'm not disparaging our disabled veterans; they can stand on two feet without crutches, canes -- or legs.)

Here's a random thought: Never let our leadership get so comfortable in office that they come to believe that they're indispensable. Hold them to account -- every hour of every day of their terms in office.

1 Caspar Milquetoast is a comic strip character created in 1924 by cartoonist Harold T. Webster. Beginning a few years after the character's debut, the term milquetoast came to describe a timid or meek person. Caspar's last name is fitting because milk toast is a weak, bland concoction of buttered toast served in a dish of warm milk.
