Depends on if they actually DO anything. It SHOULD be the end of the GOP.

If not - and this is swept under the rug or becomes accepted/tolerated behavior - then it's pretty much the end of any functioning democracy / rule of law.

My guess is that deals are being made behind the scenes with the real power players - and they're use this as an opportunity to gain advantage. Who gets thrown under the bus will likely NOT be the real villains. Never is.
