I'm not sure what that whole piece was about, Maureen.  Kind of bizarre. 

The real "enormous public service" Trump has done is to show you republicans the face of your own party.  The rest of us have watched it devolve over the years into what it is today.  We've seen angry ignorance, fear, and racism partnered with faux Christianity claim the mantle of "conservatism".  Now you're seeing it too. 

So what are you going to do about it?  Continue to embrace it and sell your souls in the pursuit of political power?  Or demonstrate integrity and separate yourselves from those elements?  You're at the crossroads.
