So not even threats to our National security

makes any Rethug stand up to or go against Trump.

You would think a couple of them would actually care about the safety of our country.

But he and his White House are a walking breech.

And the GOP remins silent. Traitors every one.

What happens when their actions lead to the Middle East blowing up because of their incompetence/ignorance/greed/hate? They are stirring the pot in places like Korea and the Middle East that could lead to unbelievable consequences. But, hey, so what if the world blows up? The repubs in Congress only care about keeping their seats, pensions and future lobbying gigs. As amoral as shitgibbon.

Not one of them will do anything.

The minute that erodes they'll crucify him. As far as keeping republican politicians in line he has the right strategy of constantly throwing red meat to the base. A tweet from him can cause them a primary and having to defend themselves.
