Howard’s Quotes

“We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men,”
― Peter Wehner, The Death of Politics: How to Heal Our Frayed Republic After Trump

“These evangelical [leaders] are the biggest phonies of all,” says Michael Steele, the former party chairman. “These are the people who spent the last forty years telling everyone how to live, who to love, what to think about morality. And then this motherfucker comes along defiling the White House and disrespecting God’s children at every turn, but it’s cool, because he gave them two Supreme Court justices. They got their thirty pieces of silver.”
― Tim Alberta, American Carnage: On the Front Lines of the Republican Civil War and the Rise of President Trump

“Why We Did It is a book about the people who submitted to every whim of a comically unfit and detestable man who crapped all over them and took over the party they had given their life to. It’s about the army of consultants, politicians, and media figures who stood back and stood by as everything they ever fought for was degraded and devalued. The people who privately admitted they recognized all the risks but still climbed aboard for a ride on the SS Trump Hellship that they knew would assuredly sink.”
― Tim Miller, Why We Did It: A Travelogue from the Republican Road to Hell — A Former Republican Operative's Political Memoir
