    Dude. Killer piece. So many inner-circle first-hand accounts here. Source density is off the charts: details, quotes, no fluff, just nonstop mayhem.

    I seriously had no idea how much those close to Trump truly detest him. Why did I assume they were mostly rabid devotees? But no one respects him, and clearly many no longer even fear him, so I take it they either expect his downfall or want it so badly they’re willing to risk anything for it.

    And maybe it’s not even heroism. At least, no one in this story displays a shred of virtue. These are backbiting cynical bastards, a carousel of political thugs. That really makes reading this piece feel like watching a ruthless mobster’s former crew participate in a ritual assassination.

    So, if you’re in need of some catharsis: first vote, but then come back and bogart this article. It’s the good shit.
