The Problem Is GOP Reps In Congress Are As Insane As Trump. Think About Their Mental Dislocation.

GOP members of Congress are just as divorced from reality as Trump. Just look at their denial of facts. And look at their embrace of complete fiction and unreality. They are worse than Trump in so many ways.

They know God damned will what they are doing and how much harm they are doing. And the KNOW that people will suffer and die if they go forward. And they are a racist and bigoted as possible, even over the top. And they are just as radical as the Nazis were in their own frame. Sure they are not shooting people in the streets and creating concentration camps. But they do exhibit so many of the same traits as tyrannical regimes.

Can we change their course?. That is the question.

The executive office chooses does not uphold the laws. The Supreme Court is on it's way to becoming a hard line right wing rubber stamp. The corrupt Congress passes the laws - You know, things like eliminating ethics monitoring them and repercussions for themselves. Law enforcement at the highest levels - think FBI - is in Putin's pocket and interfering in our elections with fact free innuendos.

There is nobody coming to help us. There is no law enforcement agency or military branch that is going to do anything other than follow the orders they are given.

They have all run afoul of the law and no one is going to reign them in. There will be no crash. There will be no justice.

The America you knew is not coming back.

Doncha know? Those people looking for handouts are evil. If they were good, they'd be rich. God looks after the good. Us rich people are good people. We must be, else god wouldn't of made us rich. Those poor people are poor because they have no morals. We've gotta cut them off. Givin' em stuff just saps innishitive. Doncha know?

Every town hall, every street protest, even time public discourse is taking place about our government, the words should be: "the GOP and the 45 administration" Or "the 45 administration and the GOP"
(I don't use his name but 45=Trump)
