Ex-CIA director Brennan's tweet blaming the GOP for Trump gets 40,000 likes in just a few hours





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. Trump’s self-serving actions.
It’s been less than four hours and he’s gotten tens of thousands of likes.


Josh Marshall put it well too:



?s=20

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.

We've already decided that the party of Trump is the Republican party.
