Finally, Trump does something Republicans cant stomach

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

What would it take for Republicans to turn against Donald Trump?

Now, finally, we know.

For nearly three years, Republican lawmakers have stood with Trump, offering only isolated protest, through all manner of outrage. Disparaging Mexican immigrants. Videotaped boasts about sexually assaulting women. Alleging that his predecessor put a wiretap on him. Falsely claiming mass­ive voter fraud. Racism directed at a federal judge. The firing of James B. Comey. Talk of women bleeding. A payoff to a porn actress over an alleged affair. A defense of white supremacists in Charlottesville. Support for Senate candidate Roy Moore despite allegations of child molestation. The guilty pleas of Michael Flynn, George Papadopoulos and Rick Gates and the indictment of Paul Manafort. The botched travel ban and bungled repeal of Obamacare. Insulting Britain and other allies. Attacks on the FBI and judiciary and attempts to fire the attorney general. Talk of African “shithole” countries. Questions about his mental stability. The lethargic hurricane response in Puerto Rico. The stream of staff firings and resignations and personal and ethical scandals, most recently Tuesday’s finding that Kellyanne Conway twice violated the Hatch Act.

Republican lawmakers were, by and large, okay with all that. But now Trump has at last gone too far. He has proposed tariffs on foreign steel and aluminum. And the Republican Party is in an all-out revolt.

House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (Wis.) fielded four questions at a news conference Tuesday morning and answered the same way four times: with a warning about the “unintended consequences” of Trump’s proposed tariffs.

1. Ill believe its all out revolt

When the Republicans start actually doing something to upset hair-fuhrer. They could for instance vote with the Democrats to release Trump’s Tax Returns to show they are serious.

2. Hell has to freeze over first......

Before that ever happens. They can't even accept that Trump is CONNING them BIGLY.

3. Revolt? Try "whine-fest."

GOPers are in disbelief that their ship is sinking, and they're taking on water. All they can do is whine that Trumpy's pulled the plug in the hull. There's no rebellion in them. They know that they're going down and they'll do nothing to save themselves, so certain that they're time is up. They're just waiting for the indictments that will include THEM. Ryan and McConnell are trapped in the galley, stuffing themselves with everything on the menu as water rises to their knees. They can't get to the life boats.

4. There will be no tariffs

He will “indefinitely suspend” tariffs after the March 13 special election.
