Feel just so fucking helpless watching the trial...

the beginning of the creation of a Republican Fascist Govt.

We all know whats going on...The determination of the Republican Party to save their asses from their leader who has officially entered the world of mental illness.

They know that their Repub. world is on the edge of the cliff...But Repubs simply don't care one fucking bit..It's all about money to them and nothing else.

Pretty simple.. It always goes back to wealth and their determination to get away from their families so they can party like it's 1966.

You know what guys.. I don't believe that there is one fucking Republican who is actually interested in curtailing their monster of a leader who is on his way to destroy our Republic.

It's depressing as hell.

I blew off my steam by calling 51 GOP senators and leaving messages (I always pretend I am an upset constituent). I feel like I did something/anything.

It takes less than a minute to Google Zillow in each Senator's state and get an address for a real house and give that to them if it is requested info from a constituent, which I pretend I am. I can get an address, call and leave a passionate message in under three minutes. Mailboxes of 41 GOP senators were NOT full which means people are NOT calling...that sucks! Oh well, I guess that I have done something anyway.

Like I have repeatedly said, I think it’s time for the northern border states to jump off the sinking ship and to go to Ottawa and negotiate entry into the Canadian confederation.

This bullshit is not worth it anymore.

Yes it hurts. Yes it is depressing but history and the American voters are going to be merciless
to these shits.

BTW except for the reddist of the red areas you are watching the GOP commit hari kari tonight.

Dems won the day! Trumps "Dream Team" was no match for our team, especially Schiff!

Sure, Trump will most likely be acquitted, but the more TV airtime the Dems get for the whole charade, the more evident it will be to the American people that this whole trial is a sham, even the "low-value" voters that are not rabid Trump cult followers.

I also think limited access of the trial for the mainstream ("low-value&quot press is actually a good thing. they won't be subject to McTurtle"s trickery and manipulation and parrot every lie that comes out of his mouth. It's also great that Trump is out of town cuz he's not much of a diversion in Davos to take the heat off the trial in the press.

So, take a deep breath. Relax its all good. The repubs are going down. Keep the faith. It's all we've got to go on right now. Can't give up. Too much to lose.
