For starters, what is the Trump executive order count up to? A dozen? And not a peep from the same crowd that pissed and moaned nonstop about Obama executive orders. And Trump is churning out mindless, unconstitutional crap. I'm really, really mad about the latest fiasco.

might be somewhat sane in private, but they will continue following the wishes of their constituents or be voted out of office.

They all know what happened to Eric Cantor after he "betrayed" his Tea Party roots and worked with Democrats to end the government shutdown and the like.

Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and the Heritage Foundation has pretty much taken over the country with their angry propaganda.

None at all. This is the thing they have dreamed of for decades and they will take full advantage of it .

behind closed doors they are freaking out.

They had 6-7 years to formulate a plan to replace the ACA and just fucked off. Now....they don't know what to do and it appears that some don't want to kill it.

small consolation

I could stomach - he's been on TV a lot and he is thoughtful, sober, smart -before the election. But, saw him on yesterday and I could not believe how much he had changed - like 180 degrees. So sad. He looked exactly like when you see a hostage and they are speaking and you can tell they are afraid they will say something wrong.

And the ones who were "supposed" to be sane aren't. Susan Collins is just as bad as the rest of those crazy motherfuckers.
