Couldn't have said it better. 

We've talked ad nauseum about how one of Russia's chief weaknesses is that they value loyalty over competence. The same dynamic plays out in this administration. Heck, he admires the Russian system in part for that reason. He wants to emulate it. 

I'm not saying other organizations - including the Democrats - don't practice the same thing. It's a human trait and it's part of the fabric of any organization we create. I'm saying Trump and his administration lean into it in a way we haven't seen before. People are rewarded for blind loyalty and punished for any showing of reluctance regardless of how supportive they might be in other areas. There can be no dissent. Zelensky represents dissent.

Zelenskyy is everything Trump, Putin and his toadies can never be— courageous, principled, statesmanlike, a leader.  And the miscalculation Trump is making is that Zelenskyy has already faced down and shown his worth against monsters far more frightening that a New York real estate developer.  He showed the world that you can say no Putin and maybe he’ll show us that you can say no to Trump.

The Senate GOP bravely pushes back.

“Look, the president has the mind of a fifth grade boy whose parents haven’t yet accepted that something’s off. But a lot of you have undiagnosed oppositional defiance disorder and so you seem to vibe with that.”
