Where are all the senior

republicans? Are they so scared of trump and in lockstep with him? I cannot believe that not one of them has the decency and humanity to disagree with the swamp rat! What is going on in the most powerful country of the world and why is trump consulting with Putin about the G7 summit when Russia is not part of that Summit.

They are the "good Germans" of our day. The "good Moslems," who enabled Sadam. The "good Russians," who enabled Stalin. There seems to always be some people, who work only for their own self interest, and never lift a finger to work for the benefit of others.
