If you folks think Groper Don the Con is going down alone

re Russia-gate, dream on.
On the other hand threats of exposing his fellow ReTHUGs may or may not buy some Trumpcare votes.

This will be quite a week. Batten down.
I'm looking for a trifecta - Trumpcare goes down; the Con goes down and more than a few ReTHUGs go down.

will be an indicator of the GOP's willingness to throw tRump under the bus? I keep waiting for a sign that the Senate (minus those in on collusion) are ready to give him the heave ho. This time around seems like their most serious attempt yet, and it could produce a major schism.

and will throw us under the bus on a whim. What this is about is whether or not they want to keep their own jobs, something which will be a very hard thing for Republicans to do once if finally dawns on Joe Lumpen out in TV land what a complete screw job he's been given in order to fatten a few billionaires.

GOP Congressmen either don't care or are counting on the Senate to save their bacon and their cushy jobs. Senators have a little more to defend, six year job security instead of only two, and will tend to weigh their beautiful dogma against having to go back to probating wills in Podunk.

That's the real issue here.

republicans are comfortable with the lies and the cheating and the russian screwing of the election. They are comfortable being led by a man with no honor. They are not going to turn their backs on Comrade Casino and his Cabal of Corrupt republican Cronies.

So outright lying is the new currency? Going on Fux News to distort the t
ruth? It's insane, and the way the supposed "dignified" politicians (Eddie Munster, Nurtle the Turtle) think they can con all of us (not just the Deplorables -- and they are the Deplorables) is disgusting.

If this continues much longer I'm going to have to start drinking again or throw out all the televisions.
