Being a Republican Senator now means nothing matters. Nothing matters. Not the storming of the Capitol, not an attempted coup, not trying to overturn a free and fair election. Nothing matters. The party of Trump. Nothing matters.

The only way Republican Senators would vote to convict Trump in his impeachment trial is if he had gotten them all killed in a coup. So you see the dilemma.

Their deranged ideals of "patriotism" are simply an imitation of 1933 Germany flying a more colorful flag.
