So Is Somebody Going To Acknowledge That Trump Had Finally Put Us In....

a Constitutional Crisis. When are the Repugs going to step up and stop Trump?

I know the Repugs want to retain their jobs - but they have to ask themselves do they really want this job given what Trump has done to their Party. Do they want to tarnish their reputation and legacy because of Trump? Do they want to go down in history as inhumane animals.

If they don't stop Trump this is how they will be remembered.

It will never be like the party led by Robert Dole, or even W/Cheney.

The GOP I remember was a little of Goldwater and Bob Dole on TV once a week bitching about taxes.

When the wealthy decided in order to gain power, they would have to lie and deceive the public in every way possible to get votes, that was the start of their demise. Starting (in my remembrance) with Nixon's Southern Strategy and Lee Atwater's bullshit, they then co-opted any and every fringe group they could capture: Evangelicals, white nationalist, gun nuts, conspiracy theorists, etc., along with a healthy pack of psychopaths like Gingrich to endlessly trumpet the dogma.

The party is so thoroughly corrupt, I see no way it can be rehabilitated......

To create such an outrage , and cause protesting to declare martial law so he can then become all powerful with absolute power over everyone?
