BTRTN: When You Wish Upon a Tsar

[reggieandlee]

Born to Run the Numbers asks: if Republicans are owned by Trump, and Trump is owned by Putin, does Putin own the Republicans? If sure looks that way, and sadly, there is "Moore to come."

Excerpt: "With each lowering of the bar, and with each display of Republican acquiescence, Donald Trump learned how completely Republican Party leaders had sold their souls to win a Republican Presidency. Republicans wanted the White House at any cost, and when the only route there became Donald Trump, they went ahead, unwittingly signing over the rights to the Republican brand in the process... If the Republicans are owned by Trump, and Trump is owned by Putin, then guess what? The Republican Party must be owned by Putin. How else do you explain the next great act of Republican moral bankruptcy: the growing, concerted, and outrageous effort to discredit the integrity and motivation of Special Counsel Robert Mueller and his investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election? ...If Robert Mueller finds absolutely incontrovertible evidence that Donald Trump was fully aware of and perhaps even involved in financial malfeasance, collusion, and/or obstruction of justice, one must question whether this Republican Party would act on it. If Robert Mueller finds unassailable proof of a 'high crime or misdemeanor,' will the Republicans in Congress simply punt, and have Sarah Huckabee Sanders mindlessly muse that these are just areas where we have to 'agree to disagree'?"
