I cannot believe the GOP is going to try and elected a Russian mole/troll.

I think it is quite obvious by now where Trump's loyalties are. What happened to all the Red Menace stuff? All that worry about national security at all costs?

No? Nothing? None now, because?

Only elect people with Rs by their name. You could put Hillary with a R by her name and they'd vote for her just as well. It's the D they, meaning the corporate masters, don't care for.

Remember, rethugs are LOYAL first and foremost. Devotion to God and country are a distant second and third.

Just a decade ago, cozying up to Russia would have been considered treasonous by the GOP. These days it's pretty much par for the course for Repubs to bash Obama and praise Putin to the moon.
