Whether they support him or are afraid

[4bonhoffer]

The entire Republican Party is allowing him to do whatever he wants. If the republicans wanted to stop him they could do so easily. He is what he is, it’s the f’ing Republican Party that is allowing are of his insanity to be implemented.

I have grown so damn tired of everyone freaking out over him and NEVER mentioning that it’s the Republican Parti that is allowing all this damage to happen. It’s the republicans who will not stand up to insanity.

1. Yes indeed

They are knowingly letting this country turn into a raging dumpster fire.

[GoCubsGo]

2. Same, and I'll add that I'm sick of the Democrats getting all the blame.

It boggles my mind that so many people believe that the minority party can just go in and stop things. Sure, the Dems in Congress could do a bit better at trying to throw sand in the gears, but it's not like they aren't doing what they can.

We really, really, really need to start requiring civics in schools again...

[OldBaldy1701E]

14. I cannot speak for anyone else...

But, my complaints are not with the Democratic Party and their lack of action.

It is with the population of the United States and their lack of action that upsets me.

We are the bottom line. Not the judicial branch, not the executive branch, not the legislative branch.

WE ARE.

And the fact that this regime is still there... well... that is not on Democrats in Congress.

That is on US.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

I guess we do not feel that this regime has become destructive enough. I am worried that there are too many people who are making out very well and that do not want anything to change, even as vast parts of society have to suffer and die because of simple things that could be avoided. The 'elite' are not suffering, so that makes it all okay.

This also means that, unless something does change, we are going to just keep right on with the injustice and the inequity.

Which, I guess, is also preferable to these same people. I mean, why take this moment to try to fix some of the crap in our society when we can just be lazy and let things play out as they stand, and to hell with the percentage of the population that has to die because of it?

The only explanation that seems to fit is that we prefer it this way. Or, are too programmed to see it any differently.

3. Pedophile enablers

Each and every one of them.

[gab13by13]

6. Exactly, that should be the narrative,

waiting to get flack for posting this, but Democrats need to start calling Krasnov, his administration, Congressional Magats, pedophile protectors.

Words matter, especially true words, not saying them also matters.

Malcolm Nance for president - 2028.

[mwmisses4289]

7. If they won't, then we the people on our social media platforms need to point that out. All the time.

[KS Toronado]

16. With you 110% on this

we really should get our messaging going into the midterms about his enablers "the pedophile protectors"
who care more about big money and never for their constituents.

[MLAA]

4. Exactly. I see no difference whether the Republican officials are co-conspirators or cowards, they are all responsible

for their own legislative actions at his behest as well as his own executive actions.

[Roy Rolling]

5. One and the Same

Every Republican is Trump and should be blamed as such. They are as much to blame as the orange man himself, and don’t escape by throwing a deranged man under the bus.

Who is supposed to be sane here?

How much worse are the thousands who volunteer to imitate a brain-diseased liar and rapist?

[Diamond_Dog]

8. They won't stop him

Because the majority of them like what he’s doing.

[Mtnmama]

9. I've always blamed the electorate,

Those greedy, ignorant rascist voters who could so easily overlook what a travisty Trump is, was, has always been, because it benefited them financially or because of some other thing that they were aligned with and could not see the huge danger Trump was for America. I've always blamed the voters, also the Republican party, but mostly the voters.

[Mtnmama]

11. And also, of course, hypocritical and haughty

(Those who support Trump)

[paulkienitz]

10. He's giving a lot of Republicans what they've always wanted: a chance to seize single party rule.

12. Here's the message/call I sent to my senators & congressman this morning

You are a powerful person, with that power given to you by citizens. With the debacle that continues to grow surrounding the Epstein files, following a LAW passed by you and signed by President Pedo, it can only be stated that if you are NOT part of the solution, you are part of the problem. The American people are entitled to transparency and accountability, and your unwillingness to stand up for the rule of law does not leave you wiggle room. You either support the rule of law, and will demand that AG Bondi and FBI Director Patel follow the law, or you simply do not. This issue is not going away, and as long as you continue to support President Pedo and his corrupt sycophants, YOU are one of his corrupt sycophants. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

13. I certainly know

and there are many others that do too.

[Stargazer99]

15. The Republican Party is owned by the wealthy-

and the average middle class/low income are the suckers and losers by the wealthy

[J_William_Ryan]

17. The Myth.

The myth is that prior to Trump, the GOP was a slightly right-of-center party interested in sound public policy and responsible governance.

And then came Trump, who single-handedly turned this right-of-center party interested in sound public policy and responsible governance into the racist, authoritarian entity it is today.

Wrong.

The facts: Trump is the product of the GOP – for more than 50 years the Republican party has pursued an illiberal neo-fascist agenda of racism, bigotry, misogyny, and hate; an agenda seeking to destroy our democratic institutions and establish the tyranny of Republican minority rule.

[OAITW r.2.0]

18. Today's Republican Party is incapable of doing policy.

They only do ideology. The Party has been rebuilding itself into a a rubber stamp body where independence, critical thinking, and bi-partisan legislation are unacceptable characteristics in our national governance. They only run candidates that can be controlled. Spinelessness is a major attribute. Ideally, skeletons in their personal lives are available to enforce Party loyalty.

And they have a significant number of voters who are oblivious to this reality.
