That's a lie, of course, but Conway and the rest will still make the claim.

By aligning themselves with Trump, the entire GOP has aligned itself with Russia against America.

The GOP knew of the Trump/Russia and the Flynn/Russia connections before either held office.

Trump, the candidate, called on Russia to hack Clinton. Trump said it because he already knew it was happening and he knew it was for his benefit. How are those investigations going?

Comey is compromised. If not by Russia then his hate of Clinton aligned him with the desires of Russia.

The GOP and other liars will tell us by questioning the legitimacy of the presidency of Trump we are questioning the stability of our country - but the truth is, allowing Trump and the rest to get away with their collusion with Putin is destroying our democracy.

America can survive a president & a vice-president going to prison. America can survive cabinet officials and other staff going to prison. America can survive the downfall of the GOP as well.

What America can't survive is foreign influence on our elections and our democracy. We cease being America once that is allowed and become a puppet to the foreign influence.

Flynn resigning revolved nothing.

Prior to 45, W was the most inept and poorly run administration in our lives, it has to be THAT bad for Rs to held accountable, and even at that the idiots were not held accountable.

Things are going to have to get, as hard as this is to fathom a LOT worse before the Rs in congress do anything about this, and even then it will be mostly show if they can get away with it at all.

You do see how everyone is making Pence out to be a saint. I think that is their fall back position, to at the very least make him out to be the golden boy who can save the country.

I'm taking bets.

They all knew - they are all part of the coup - power by any means.
