Now that the Republicans have their "victory"...

[kentuck]

..they can now get serious about protecting our country from foreign intervention in our elections?

Or they can continue to pretend that everything is "normal"?

All the lies about the meetings with Russians was "normal". The actions and words of Donald Trump are "normal". If they just ignore reality, maybe it will all just go away?

Or they can follow the advice of Orrin Hatch, who called Donald Trump the "greatest" President he had served with in his time in Washington? They can march in lockstep behind the "madman". They have shown themselves capable of rationalizing insanity.

They can continue to pretend that it is all about "politics". It's OK to "lie" to protect your own.

1. Republicans will only get serious about protecting us if putin decides to back democrats next time

which he may very well do.

[kentuck]

2. Very possible.

Our country is more vulnerable today than the day Trump was sworn into office.

3. The only thing they will get serious about

is deconstructing, raping and destroying Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, etc.
