Is the Republican Party a threat to our nation ??

Why would anyone think such a thing??

They take an oath to defend our Constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic, and they are failing miserably. It isn't about Democrat vs Republican. It is about defending our country.

Republicans are putting our nation in a very precarious position. People of all political persuasions are starting to see that.

Maybe it is time to look at the 25th Amendment??

that clearly and obviously benefited most Americans.

I say not one but there may have been one, not sure.

For only one year I cant count the number of Democrats who have said they WILL support Trump if he does things to help the American people.

Folks, this is simple, one party is patriotic and the other simply is not.

Attacking the immune system, killing off healthy cells and replacing them with deadly cancer cells, unrelenting, eating away, metastasizing, spreading, shutting down living organs, consuming and eventually killing the host.

So, yes, the Republican Party is the worst goddamned threat to our country in its entire history, because it’s killing off democracy from the inside-out, just as sure as any galloping cancer would take down a healthy body.
