In reply to the discussion: Republicans unhappy that voters tie them to Trump. [View all]Bernardo de La Paz
(48,999 posts)34. Good. Keep tying them to Republican President Trump. It's working. They own him.
Republican President tRump is the culmination of 40 years of Republicon propaganda, stupefaction, gerrymandering, framing the debate, polarization, and fake news.
They ran 17 candidates and they chose him.
They had numerous chances to condemn him. They endorsed him.
Democrats predicted this disaster if he was elected. Republicons could see it too but kept quiet and prayed while they colluded with the Russians to steal the Electoral College.
They own him. They must pay in 2018 by losing seats.
The only way to redeem the Republicon brand now is to impeach both tRump & Pence simultaneously and use Article II, Clause 6 to restore the presidency to the Majority Vote winner, Hillary Clinton. Unlikely, but really the only way.

Sure is. But, people aren't just tying them to Trump, they're tying Republicans to "Mother Russia!"

IIRC somebody on Fox News has tried the talking-point that he's a Democrat at heart.
