G.O.P.: The Cake Eater's Party
From The Atlantic "Great Republican Revolt" by David Frum: White Middle Americans express heavy mistrust of every institution in American society: not only government, but corporations, unions, even the political party they typically vote for—the Republican Party of Romney, Ryan, and McConnell, which they despise as a sad crew of weaklings and sellouts.
