I guess a good portion of the GOP congress is content with Putin working with a demented president

to undermine and take over the US. I wonder how many of these same GOP congressmen call themselves patriots and the rest of the bullshit that goes with it! I find it all damn disgusting.

1. You're not the only one!

3. It's quite disheartening to say the least when a governing body just welcomes and lets a foreign

power/dictator take over the country with a demented president. And worst, the tRump cult followers are apparently OK with it all as they wave their US flags and call themselves patriots. It's incredible!!!

We must Register new voters wherever and whenever we can.

5. is there even one repub who actually taken any action beyond useless words? nt

7. Not that I know of. Their modus operandi IMO is to rip off for themselves what they can and

fuck the country and democracy. I don't think any of them give a damn about the people or the future of the US. They are clearly in it for themselves. I never dreamed I would ever see a GOP US congress work to destroy the US democracy.

6. I fully believe they're all in Putin's pocket

Whether it's payoffs or blackmail, they're all corrupt and under Russian control.

8. That's what I think too, there is/are a lot of money/payoffs/blackmailing flowing under the table.

This takeover might have been going on, in the planning, for sometime. It's all just far too weird. And the BFF with Putin and Trump ... it's far more than just that. I'm willing to bet there are a fair number of congressmen and others of the Trump cult involved. Just what the Mueller investigation has revealed so far is astounding. What bothers me is I think a fair percentage of Americans would be OK if Russia took over the US, they are severely brainwashed. I've run into a few of them and they are beyond reason. Putin is great to them as is Trump. It's all fucken scary, combined with a GOP congress that just sits on their asses ... complacent and complicit.

9. They are POWER LESS... its the base that holds the power. Why cant you guys understand that.,

They are POWER LESS... its the base that holds the power. Why cant you guys understand that.

Sure they could make a stand to help America, then lose their office and what do we have..

They made a stand and the base votes in another group of angry republicans.

I had this argument with another DU member the other day.

You HAVE TO SOLVE THIS at the root of the problem. THE BASE OF DONALD TRUMP.

What is making them accept this?

What is making them hate liberals so much? To them Putting a gun to a liberals head to keep them from voting is fair game and they have most of the GUNS.

Trump is terrible but he is just using the Force of HIS BASE. The BASE MUST BE CHANGED or this does NOT CHANGE.

11. It's not a "good portion" - it's all of them

[RKP5637]

In my opinion.
