Colin Powell gets it. Condi Rice doesn’t.

Powell indicts not only Trump’s rank dishonesty, racism and ineptness but Republicans’ refusal to do anything about it. His message is clear: Voting to keep Trump in office is antithetical to support for American ideals. He is under no illusion that Trump or his enablers can change. They must be defeated.

Rice remains willfully blind to the essence of Trump, to the impossibility of his rising to the occasion. Later in the interview she refused to embrace Mattis’s incontrovertible observation that Trump is the only president in his lifetime who does not even try to unite the country. “Well, look, I have enormous respect for Jim Mattis. And he’s a man of great integrity. He’s a patriot … What I want to speak to is the future and what we do here over the next several months.” Really, is it so hard to condemn what has been among the defining features of the current administration?
