Let's hope Judiciary Committee debacle is GOP's final insult

After watching the horrifying Senate Judiciary Committee hearing today in its entirety - - from the clownish behavior of chairman Chuck Grassley to the 11 white male Republican members in Donald Trump''s death grip to the Lindsey Graham hysterical 'the world is ending' call to arms - -  I can only repeat and hope to hear more of what some Republicans like the writer and pundit Max Boot

have said and done recently: 

I left the Republican Party. Now I want Democrats to take over.

Veteran strategist Steve Schmidt, who ran John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign, is the latest Republican to say “no more....” 

Schmidt follows in the illustrious footsteps of Post columnist George F. Will, former senator Gordon Humphrey, former representative (and Post columnist) Joe Scarborough, Reagan and Bush (both) aide Peter Wehner, and other Republicans who have left the party. 

I’m with them. After a lifetime as a Republican, I re-registered as an independent on the day after Donald Trump’s election. 

Wisconsin Republicans - - your move.
