Senator McConnell & Speaker Ryan: If Mr. Trump continues along this disastrous path, you will bear major responsibility for the harm done to our democracy. You do a great disservice to our Nation & the Republican Party if you continue to enable Mr. Trumps self-serving actions.
Its been less than four hours and hes gotten tens of thousands of likes.

At this point this doesn't even have much to do with Trump anymore. When a criminal gets caught of course he fights, obstructs justice, tries to stop getting arrested. The issue here is a party willing to back up his actions. They only surrender quietly when no one backs them up.
This battle for American democracy is not over. American patriots are going to win and Trump and the Republican Party and their billionaire donors are going to lose.
