the way republicans operate, it is a mafia organization that has infiltrated government, and they were successful at placing one of their ranking members on the presidency.

If the USA had real journalism many of the members of the republican mafia would have been ousted already. Ask this question, if some republican can get dirt on another republican, why can't Democrats do the same? As many have said, you cannot go into a knife fight with a bible, so get your knives and fight the republican mafia at their own level, or even go higher.
