“I’m sorry, but he knew about our gettin’ hit on three big machines in a row and he did nothing about it. That means either he was in on it or, forgive me for saying this, he was too dumb to see what was going on. Either way, I cannot have a man like that workin’ here.”
– Robert DeNiro, as Sam “Ace” Rothstein in Casino, in a quote that perfectly applies to the Republican establishment’s performance since Ronald Reagan.
