She doesn't cut Trump any slack at all. Sometimes she sounds like a liberal.

I agree with almost all that Steve Schmidt said with perhaps one point. Steve Schmidt and Nicole Wallace both say that Paul Ryan is a good guy. If he continues to support Trump; if he continues to not oppose Trump and his multitude of disgusting, heartless, and bigoted, actions; if Ryan continues to acquiesce to an obviously mentally unstable President, then he is not a good man. He is the definition of someone allowing evil to triumph by doing nothing. The same can be said of the vast majority of Republican officials.

All of what has happened reminds me of the rise of Adolph Hitler to power. The conservatives in the Weimar Republic thought they could control Hitler. They gave Hitler the chancellorship and the rest was inevitable. When will the rest of the Republicans follow the lead of Sen. Corker? They are cowards. They are more worried about their reelection chances then they are about the people of this country.

who's willing to risk the country in order to not get primaried by Cult45 & lose his cushy government gig. He wouldn't know what to do with his pathetic self. Party over country every goddamned time.
