Republicans who turn a blind eye to Trump's Russia ties are betraying their own country

The FBI Investigation Will Continue After Mueller Is Done

The main Republican talking point in defense of Trump is to falsely claim that he has been tougher on Russia than Obama was, but that avoids the real question. Republicans don’t want to talk about Trump’s relationship with Russia, because the honest answer is that they don’t know the depth and scope of the president’s relationship with Putin.

When Trump was a candidate, they never asked, and now that he is president, they never investigated.

Trump’s Russia problem isn’t going away anytime soon, which is why Republicans who turn a blind eye to Trump’s Russia ties are betraying their own country, and need to pay for these borderline crimes. - PolitusUSA

This is the first time I've heard what we've been saying all along, Russpubilcans/republicans/republicons/KGOP, whatever label fits them NEED TO PAY FOR THEIR BORDERLINE CRIMES of turning a blind eye to what is becoming evident, a Russian Asset in the White House.

to start doing this, I am already doing it.

Admittedly I dont do it in every situation, I take my safety into account first but when I think I am in a situation where there is enough public awareness, phones, I will pretend to be on my phone, I have earbuds and I will pretend to be talking to someone about the TRAITOR in the WH.

WE NEED to all be talking more about this in the open.

Any nit wit who claims to love their country, who doesn't stop and reflect and have a change of heart, is/are in criminal denial or secretly just fine with it. Neither are defensible. Country first.
