This is the last chance for Republicans to stand up for our country or they will be beholden forever.

Never give him room to breathe or he will tear everything down. Then they will have no choice but to blame it all on the Democrats.

These are the times that try men's souls.

know more about how DC works than in 2016. So far it looks like they are even more dysfunctional than
