George Pyle: Utah's governor calls out Republican extremism. Sometimes.
The Republican legislative junta will override just about any veto Cox might issue. Which can’t be anything but painful. But he still could make a lot more noise, rally the people - who would be more likely to agree with him than with lawmakers - and look for some executive hammers to use against the lawmakers who so enjoy ignoring him.
To pick up the governor’s analogy of America needing a marriage counselor, that’s an image that works when you have two equally unhappy people who still want to work out their differences. But what we have now is more like the pairing of a drunken, violent spouse with a partner who is just too terrified to get out of the relationship.Political leaders who reach toward the center, hoping to find common ground and move ahead wherever and whenever they can, are, in normal circumstances, the ideal.
Cox may hope that by alternating criticism of some of the more absurd Trumpist claims with Neville Chamberlain moments of appeasement, the MAGA beast may eat him last. He might be right about that. Fat lot of good that does the rest of us.
