'What Mr. Trump is doing that is damaging to the country is public and constant. It is a bell he's ringing that can't be unrung.'

Conservative icon George Will said that President Donald Trump had altered the Republican Party's historic identity to such an extent that conservatism is no longer a"dignified, useful persuasion."Thursday morning, the Pulitzer-winning political commentator bemoaned the party's unquestioning support of the president.

"Nixon's burglaries and other abuses of power were surreptitious. They were secret and went exposed. They were tidied up and we moved on," he said."What Mr. Trump is doing that is damaging to the country is public and constant. It is a bell he's ringing that can't be un-rung. He is putting into our civic discourse a level of conversation and of name-calling and of abuse that will now seem perfectly normal in the future.

Democrats, including California Representative Maxine Waters, have responded to Republican calls for civility by pointing to the antagonistic tone promoted by Trump. Last year, amid outrage over family separations caused by Trump's"zero tolerance" policy, Waters drew rebuke from Republicans after she called for protesters to"push back" against members of the Trump administration figures.
