Rep. Dean: “They’re fencing us from the lies that have been told from inside”As U.S. Capitol police prepare for a right-wing rally, Rep. Madeleine Dean says lawmakers are once again being fenced in due to the lies being spread by Donald Trump and the Republican party. She says the Republican party has “devolved into a cult.

Not sure the answer, but it ain't 'oh it was really bad 9 months ago but we're good now'.
