http://theconcourse.deadspin.com/republicans-fear-trumps-cruel-tweet-will-harm-their-cru-1796522826"Here is a reminder: All of these people are members of a political party presently working out how to strip reasonable access to healthcare from tens of millions of vulnerable peoplethe poor, the sick, the elderlyso that they can kick back some tax money to the richest sliver of Americas upper class without imperiling the job prospects of those of them who won elections by branding themselves as moderates. Imagine thinking literally anything else represents what is wrong with American politics. Imagine fretting over what does or does not empower women while your own party conspires to strip prenatal care from mothers. Imagine wringing your hands over civility while plotting to bankrupt and ruin the families of sick children so that a few billionaires can bleed just a little more cash out of the society theyre destroying.
Nothing Donald Trump puts in a fucking tweet could ever equal the least portion of the cruelty the Republican party presently is working to enshrine into law. What is wrong with American politics can be summarized by the fact that these motherfuckers are not in jail."

He cares only for himself and Ivanka. So it's doubtful that he will do anything for those clowns that don't benefit him.

Having a madman from their party as president may derail their agenda? Is their party really slow or what?
