I feel about him. He's not even worthy of hatred...just contempt and loathing, like some kind of vile, disease-spreading cockroach. But, having said that, all of the above come in close seconds!

In my mind they are even worse. The ones who are putting party over country, who know that Trump is an insane fascist, and yet stay quiet due to policies and misplaced fealty to the republicans party.

There are so many high-profile bigots and liars among the lot of them that he just kind of goes unnoticed most of the time. Not to say he isn't dangerous.

Ryan is just a spineless nothing who was estatic that he finally got his boyhood dream passed—the tax scam which funneled up over a trillion dollars from us to the rich. Shortly after he announced he would step down, as if his job was done.

Session is next as he has the power to implement his racism and anti-immigrant views into actual law—and he has. He's put immigrant kids in chain link pens.

The rest are just sycophants to an orange, puss-filled, lying impostor.

Paul Ryan and Stephen Miller are tied for 2nd, followed by SHS. The rest of them are all in a 4th place cluster.

The billionaires behind the GOP, the billionaires that built the rightwing propaganda media machine- they are most at fault.

Add Limbaugh, Hewitt, Levin, Carlson, Prager, Hannity. They all put money above country. It’s sick and horrible.

More than anyone else, the people above are responsible for caging kids.

I'm really hoping Mueller brings them down, along with Ryan and Sessions.

Miller is total reprehensible and probably the most racist hater of them all, excepting maybe Sessions and drumpf himself.

I'm afraid when historians write US history, ( just to pick dates)
1974, Nixon pardon to today, the slime trail of the first 3 names will be writ large. They are capable, damaging, tactical fighters, for their masters the Kochs, who won great battles that will impact our society for ever. Sessions has no business walking into Bobby Kennedys'old office, even w/ his issues as AG. Pence is a christofacist dominist that my Mom thinks is a good man.

Portman is jr Sen from Ohio, he hasn't held a open public townhall w/ his constituents since 10/14. His work during Shrubs' terms as a trade delegate certainly hooked him up w/ ALEC & the Koch $. He will NEVER get a republican challanger in Ohio, & he is young enough to run for VP some years from now.

We think we know how far the other lowlife Republicans would go. With Rick Scott, no thinking necessary. Yet I've had that slimeball thief as governor for 8 years and can't bear the thought of 6 year additional terms, because make no mistake it's the same as governor...once he's in he won't be ousted in the first try as incumbent.

That outcome is absolutely crucial
