10. He stabbed Comey in the back. Why? Its the nature of Republicans like the frog and scorpion.

They have consistently put their party first before the welfare of the nation. Be assured that he will be greatly rewarded for his loyalty. His departing praise of Trump sent a signal out far and wide that he is still a loyal member like a so-called "made man" in the Mafia.

The Republican Party operates exactly like a criminal enterprise that puts the welfare of its wealthy members as their top priority. It matters not to them that thousands will die because of no health insurance or result in bankruptcy. They are willing to use kids as pawns to satisfy the racist constituency of their party that they have cultivated over the last forty years. It matters not the infrastructure of the nation is in shambles because of their policy to enrich the wealthy. The list could go on for pages.

The enemy is not at the gates. It is internal like a cancer that is eating soul of the nation. Their message of hatred and division is broadcast daily by hundreds of loyal propagandists to millions of their unwitting followers who have been convinced that they are the only true Americans. They believe that they are salt of the nation rather than pathetic dupes that are being fleeced by charlatans who are regarded as little more than useful idiots. It is a rather interesting phenomena to watch people so enthusiastically enjoying their own destruction. Like a ship of fools drilling holes in their own boat. You only have to consider how easily it was to convince them that unions that created the middle class were their enemy as to just how pathetic the situation has become. Of for that matter how they are convinced that universal medical care is a disease. The list goes on...
