Do you really believe the Republicans think Trump has done anything wrong?!

Pardon me, kentuck. I read your posts every day with interest and respect even though we're often of differing hues and perspectives.

In about an hour, when you see the vote tally after the so-called conviction vote, you'll know that the entirety of the Republican party stands behind Trump. Romney is an anomaly. Collins and Murkowski are almost anomalies. The Party will stand together.

Stupidly, a couple of Democrats might go along with an acquittal vote. Their re-elections prospects should be nonexistent.

Republicans have divorced themselves from any principles that the serious conservatives espoused. They are one of the following and I invite you to take your pick:

- Cult
- Religion
- Tribe
- Counter-Insurgency fueled from another nation
- Interior coup
- Idiocy

Don't count on any Republicans to buck up against McConnell. He told us from the beginning that he was going to cover for Trump.

Why would you expect anything else?
