What Do Deplorables Think of GOP Congress Using tRump? [View all]

That's what Joy says is happening, and that's what most of us on DU believe. But I don't think the deplorables realize it yet. They trust that their orange god is omnipotent, watching out for them, and commanding congress to do his bidding. So I have to ask you, Could that be their weakness? If we focus on how tRump is being played by the GOP, will the deplorables turn on their party in favor of their orange god? It might be worth a try.
