“President Trump met last week with a delegation of hard-right activists led by Ginni Thomas, the wife of Justice Clarence Thomas, listening quietly as members of the group denounced transgender people and women serving in the military before accusing White House aides of blocking Trump supporters from getting jobs in the administration,” the New York Times reports.

“For 60 minutes, Mr. Trump sat, saying little but appearing taken aback.”

“It is unusual for the wife of a sitting Supreme Court justice to have such a meeting with the president, and some close to Mr. Trump said it was inappropriate for Ms. Thomas to have asked for a meeting with the head of a different branch of government.”

Taken as a microcosm, this, on a larger scale (with a bit of Russian influence and mucho Citizens United), is precisely what’s killing democracy.
