Wednesday's Rachel Maddow Show begins with another of those rambly goofy stories that make you wonder whether a News Point is on the way, and then gets to the point and you say "Aha!" We won't even summarize the first five minutes, because you deserve the fun of watching them play out with the fewest possible spoilers (also, we're not sure where we'd start). Eventually, though, we find out how a near fistfight on a ski lift between a veteran Republican operative and an ardent white supremacist is a really good metaphor for the current relationship between the mainstream GOP and its wackaloon wing.
It's not hate, it's heritage.
That was excellent! You win
Rachel Maddow is the canary in the coal mine.
Oh, the holidays with the nutty relatives are going to be <em>so</em> much fun this year.
