"this embrace of Trump's deplorable behavior isn't new. Republican officials have broadly stood with Trump after he bragged about being a "pu**y" grabber, after he slandered an Indiana-born judge with Mexican lineage, even after he repeatedly and viciously targeted the parents of a Gold Star family that dared to question Trump’s fitness to be the commander in chief of our country and our troops. (Man, were they ever right.) Through it all, most Republicans have either defended or stood silent, so perhaps their support of him lauding the "very fine people" who made common cause with white supremacists and neo-Nazis shouldn't be a surprise. Republicans are all in and they own every piece of Trump's complete and total moral bankruptcy."
