The only thing liberals are good at is making excuses for why they can’t be progressive. Every time a “progressive” policy (usually pre-approved by their corporate owners or AIPAC) is proposed they end up cowering to the Republican obstructionist and using that as an excuse why they can’t pass it.
Donald Trump rose to political prominence by pushing birtherism, providing dumb white trash with the pretense of a rational reason to oppose a black president.

Folks like Ezra spend more time trying to come up with new big words to say than doing anything meaningful journalistically.
Trump is Bubba's Binky.
That's it. That's the whole shtick.
Trump ran on racism.
Racism has been a gop plank for over 50 years.
The gop runs on fear, grievance and white supremacy.
I rather live in CA or NYC than in Mississippi or Alabama or Texas.
The jebus freaks never produced much except jebus freaks.
