The dangerous villains hide what they are.
No one voted for him, he was a default appointee, the only name available for this "precinct committee officer" position. Now he claims he's taking over the local GOP. 
I'd feel sorry for them having this creep dumped on them if... Hmmm, there is no "if."
Koch-backed, though.
And remember, that Tea-Party "takeover" was a Koch scheme, directed and financed, but also that tea partiers thought they were rebelling against people like the Kochs. And Trump is an astonishingly silly and clueless Republican base rebellion against the Koch types' control; yes, the big donors have turned a lot of his power into lemonade, but they don't have good control of that electorate at all.
Which is an argument for fear of a large white nationalist movement next, I have to admit. We need to watch for their next very bad leader to start appearing in the news, the one who comes after they discover Trump's not the strong leader they thought they were getting and throw him under the bus. There's the Kochs' Pence waiting quietly, of course...
fear, and thus must identify and fight, a huge existential enemy. When the Cold War collapsed and left them without a Russia as an external threat, I watched them turn inward against the Democrats, focusing especially on the Clintons. I recognized it happening as it did, but I didn't realize that it was being directed and grown by conspiracists to split and defeat the electorate.
Should have. I never believed it couldn't happen here, always felt it could, just didn't really think it would.
