Under Trump we all live in Flint

From Charles Pierce:

He’s floundering. He may well be in his last days. But there’s no question that whoever replaces him will be just as much of a vandal as Pruitt is. As Dan Kildee, D.Michigan, said, this is a philosophy shared generally at every level of the conservative movement—from its collegiate auxiliaries, through the think-tanks, to the politicians that movement ultimately produces. 

As for the rest of us, Kildee was right when he told that corporal’s guard gathered on Wednesday outside the offices that Scott Pruitt may not grace for much longer what the real problem is, his words echoing off the walls of the president’s luxury hotel.

“We all live in Flint now,” he said.
