"When you see the word 'polarizing,' beware. It’s a red flag, these days, for false equivalence. It can be way to avoid identifying what’s really going on with a Republican party that has gone off the rails."

Blame both the GOP's craziest and their flaccid leader but also every other Republican who could join with the Senate to put the extremists in their place and actually govern. They are all guilty.

"Every defendant charged with racketeering in Georgia is, of course, a member of the Republican Party, which until recently, at least, was known as the party of law and order. Since the multiple indictments of Donald Trump, however, the Republican Party has taken a sudden pro-crime turn, with many Republicans, including Trump himself, calling for the defunding and dissolution of the Department of Justice and the FBI."
