One of the most disgusting things about where we are today is that not one Republican Member

will speak up to defend the woman who leads their chamber against vicious attacks by the head of another branch.

Not that she needs it, but it would still be nice.

The Republican party is committing suicide. They have turned their backs on all morals, the rule of law, the constitution and reality itself.

I am 60 years old and I have never seen anything like this. I believe we are getting a history lesson. What we are witnessing must be what normal, sane Germans witnessed in the 1930s, 1940s. It's madness.

Trumps presidency will go down as ipso facto Russian policy. I know that if he somehow remains
in office I am leaving the US.

I keep thinking that there is still ONE Old School Republican with a shred of integrity.

NOPE.

Putin. Putin has dirt on the entire republican party. Money, women, men, you name the kompromat and I have no doubt in my mind that Putin has a Sword of Damocles over the party. There is absolutely no other explanation that not one has broken ranks, even with the debacle in Syria. The whole party is corrupt. Putin has been feeding all kinds of kompromat to the party now for years. Now he has them by the balls. He knew they will do anything for power, for wealth including treasonous acts. He's ex KGB. He knows how to evaluate weaknesses and the republican party wants money and power where ever they can get it. So Putin just fed them what they wanted.
