Absolutely Steve - and they would spread tales of a communist plot. The Republican leadership dreads any civic action which might divert their rank and file's focus from xenophobia and bitter entitlement.

Cruz is now selling signed copies of a Dr. Seuss book for $60. Biden is inoculating 200,000,000 Americans. Maybe we need a tsunumi of new children's books celebrating community involvement, infrastructure, science and love.

But the Republican leadership's diversions, while patently absurd, are often successful and we need to keep a close watch.
