Drucker is dumb as a rock. Nobody "forced" Danforth to say something as stupid and offensive as "There hasn't been a more divisive person in national politics since George Wallace." And Trump was right on Charlottesville, so these "midterm Republicans" needed to back him rather than back the Democrat yawp that you couldn't mention the Communist antifas (who were actually MORE at fault) in the same sentence as the white supremacists.

Back Trump or lose. Nothing "awkward" about that. It's a promise.
