Это сенатор John Thune. Тут есть еще промежуточные моменты, я приведу только начало и конец.

Кукольный театр. Боже мой.

Цирк с гутаперчивыми человечками.

Билл Кристол, один из немногочисленных невертрамперов:

Possibly I’m being unfair. If I discover that, in return for his premature capitulation, Thune secured from Trump an agreement not to oppose a deal to bring aid for Ukraine to the floor of the House, I’ll de-trigger myself and recant this criticism.
But for now I’m inclined to indulge my indignation, and to quote Winston Churchill’s January 28, 1931, denunciation of Labour Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald:
"I remember when I was a child, being taken to the celebrated Barnum's Circus, which contained an exhibition of freaks and monstrosities, but the exhibit on the program which I most desired to see was the one described as ‘The Boneless Wonder.’ My parents judged that the spectacle would be too demoralizing and revolting for my youthful eye and I have waited fifty years to see The Boneless Wonder sitting on the Treasury Bench."
And of course it’s not really one senator, John Thune, who triggered me. It’s all the Republican Boneless Wonders, all those who could have stood up and didn’t and who have so thoroughly and pathetically capitulated to Donald Trump over the last eight years.
I make no apology for being triggered by such a demoralizing and revolting spectacle.
