There's a simple word for it. [View all]

Corruption.

From Donald Trump down, thru almost the entire Republican Party. Thru Bill Barr, thru Mitch McConnell, thru Kevin McCarthy, thru Mark Meadows, thru Devin Nunes, thru every elected Republican, with the exception of a very few.

We should not be so naive to think there is no corruption in the Democratic Party. I'm sure there is isolated corruption. But it cannot compare to the corruption of the Republicans. They are rotten to the core.

The evidence we have seen proves it beyond a shadow of a doubt. They will do anything to hold on to power. They are not for the people. They are for a clique of elected Republicans in Washington and anyone that can help them maintain power. That is it.

There can be no justice until they are all in jail or all have been voted out of office.

I cannot believe there has ever been corruption in our country to the degree we see today.
