In his splenetic new book, Mr Milbank dates the " crack-up" of the Republican Party to various " destructionists" and—to appropriate the author's trademark style—their depravity, deplorability, mendacity, moral turpitude, rapacity and sycophancy.

在他那本脾气暴躁的新书中，米尔班克先生将共和党的“崩溃”归咎于各种“破坏主义者”，以及——借用作者标志性的风格——他们的堕落、可悲、虚伪、道德败坏、贪婪和阿谀奉承。
