In the last few years of people arguing about politics, and talking about 'the Left' and 'the Right', not enough people have said what this Republican Senator is saying. That this isn't about two sides of politics, it's about politics, versus chaos. Angry people providing simplistic 'solutions' to complex problems, smashing our institutions in the process. Happening right here in Australia too, where we have anti-government people IN government, trying to wreck the place from within. Egged on by more angry people on the outside (usually angry old white men in the media). Notice how Republicans are sick of Trump talking 'to the base' - something Abbott constantly does here as well. This is not about Trump, he's a sideshow. It's something much more dangerous. http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/07/31/my-party-is-in-denial-about-donald-trump-215442
