Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsMy two cents: tRump and his goons are more dangerous than the gop imagined. He is not the
useful idiot they thought they could manipulate and dispose of.
He and his will not go quietly.
I fear shit will get a lot worse before it gets any better.
I hope Im wrong.
I need a drink!

(2,993 posts)They knew the shaved orangutan would nominate their kind of judges/justices and approve of their tax cuts.
I think some of them thought he'd be gone by now, replaced by Pence. They didn't consider just how intractable the Damp Lord's base would be.

(82,849 posts)But every day, every Republican in the House and Senate takes a look at the country and what's happening to it under the Trump administration, and says, "This is just fine with me." They could collectively decide anytime they like to stop it, but they don't. If Trump has slipped their leash or they feel he's gotten dangerous, the Republicans have betrayed no sign that they are alarmed or even uncomfortable with what he's doing.
And they don't even have to come to a collective decision. Two Republicans in the Senate could leave the caucus and join the Democratic side and stop the administration cold. Unfortunately for the country, at such a time as this, the good lord didn't see fit to endow any Republicans in the Senate with courage or integrity.

(4,341 posts)He is like the pet you got form a pet shelter that looked nice and calm, to find out the first day you left him alone inside the house, that he chewed up all of your furniture.
And I feel he, like a good mafioso that he is, has incriminated many of the republicans, he has them by the balls and that is why is going to be so hard for them to get rid of him, they will have to watch from the sidelines as the man-child destroys their party.
I am just concerned that is taking so long for Muller to bring in the goods to get rid of the man-child and his family, he and the republicans are like termites, they are chewing the county to pieces and it drives me nuts that elections can be so closed, people should be rallying against the political mafia republicans represent. What is wrong with so many people?
Yesterday I saw and interview, can't remember where, six people had expressed that health care was their number one priority, and there were about three people that would still vote for the republicans...what is wrong with these people?? Aren't they paying attention?

(51,594 posts)I knew he would win due to this fact...Americans are stupid! How else can you explain that they want affordable health care then vote for theses asses over and over. Meanwhile those of us who have functioning brain cells are forced to live by minority rule. I need affordable health care and I read, vote and best of all I THINK about issues and separate facts from fiction. Unfortunately I will still suffer through bankruptcy and eventually die since I do NOT have enough money to pay for my needed surgeries unless I get to keep the ACA. Thanks you to the stupid Americans in this increasingly stupid country who vote against their own interests we will all suffer for generations..

(1,414 posts)trump has a power I've not seen of any occupant of the White house (albeit in this case illegal) in my lifetime. trump has the ability to reach all the way down to the street level, perhaps even your neighbor, to have things done to those who choose to dissent. Understand the danger and the dangerous times we live in my friends.

After all this polls show his support around 40%.....people cheer this but I think.....40% are Ok with all this? This is one scary time.
