☆ The Murdoch-owned New York Post, which long championed Donald Trump, mocks 'Trumpty Dumpty' for failing to put the GOP 'back together again'
  + stars: | 2022-11-10 | by ( Lloyd Lee | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +2 min
The New York Post depicted Donald Trump as a nursery-rhyme character for its Thursday cover. Many Republicans saw the midterm results as a stunning rebuke of Trump's supposed hold on the GOP. The cover was shared by New York Times correspondent Maggie Haberman, a former New York Post reporter herself. At the time, The Post's editorial board wrote that Trump would bring back "explosive job creation, rising wages and general prosperity" prior to the pandemic. Piers Morgan, the controversial British journalist who joined The Post as a columnist in 2021, authored the cover story.

Al Drago / Bloomberg via Getty ImagesAll told, 23 of those false electors hold positions of power within their Republican parties. Then there are additional actors that didn’t serve in the slate of false electors themselves but were instrumental in the scheme. Others hold positions of power within the state GOP, including Shafer, who is chair; Joseph Brannan, state GOP treasurer; Vikki Consiglio, the state party’s assistant treasurer; and Ken Carroll, the assistant secretary. On June 21, federal agents scattered across key states to deliver subpoenas to those who acted as Trump electors.

This piece has been adapted from "American Psychosis: A Historical Investigation of How the Republican Party Went Crazy,” by David Corn. Some reporters feared Goldwater supporters were about to storm the stage and physically attack the governor. The Republican Party — those then in control of it — thought otherwise. They were guided by what Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway once called “alternative facts.” For many of the Capitol Hill assailants, Trump and his paranoia had become a theology. Excerpted from "American Psychosis: A Historical Investigation of How the Republican Party Went Crazy."
